Toxic Behaviour in the Work Place

People have annual health checks. They have their cars serviced annually. Businesses have equipment serviced annually. Any business that believes in prevention rather than cure needs to initiate regular TOXIC Health Checks.

Defined as "any behaviour that causes harm, damages relationships or generates persistent, adverse feelings in other people", toxic behaviour is on the increase. Toxic behaviour often results from a lack of "Emotional Intelligence". Toxic Leadership in the workplace is regarded as either bullying or manipulation. Toxic Leadership in politics and banking has resulted in a worldwide depression.

What are the sure signs of TOXIC Leadership?

In business, declining performance, high staff turnover, absenteeism, sickness, increases in stress, grievances, disciplinary actions, early retirement and burnout. In individuals, feelings of inadequacy, low self-esteem, anxiety, anger, frustration, guilt, fear and hopelessness. All of which tend to trigger ongoing health problems.

How easily can TOXIC behaviour be detected and reduced?

Very easily using the proper diagnostic tools to perform a TOXIC health check. Without them, it is difficult. Toxic communication can be very difficult to detect. Poor communication skills aggravate toxic situations.
