Bully for you
It is surprising how often I encounter bullying at director level. It’s not always director down to manager, but just as often it is between directors themselves. Some people try to dismiss the issue as a ‘personality clash’ or a ‘difference of opinion’ but the truth is invariably more profound.The bully is usually suffering from low esteem or a lack of personal confidence, for one or several of a hundred reasons. The victim is frequently performing perfectly well but they have been chosen as an object of irrational criticism, derision and sometimes abuse.
So what do we do about it? Well we tackle it of course, at the earliest possible opportunity.
In this knowledge economy there is so much competition in the market place the very last thing we need is destructive competition in our organisation.
