Conflict, hurt, anger, poor communication, lack of appreciation—for decades I have sought to help men and women deal with such issues in marriage. Today numerous individuals experience these same painful realities at work. Countless employees suffer in toxic workplaces, and perhaps you are one of them.
Healthy workplaces grow from high mutual respect and sensitivity to others. They are created when employees and managers learn how to express appreciation for positive traits and kindly confront each other when they are concerned about the quality of work being done. All of us have the emotional need to feel appreciated by those with whom we work. Most of us would admit that we are not perfect and always have room for improvement. We are willing to improve if those who supervise us are willing to show us a road that will make us more effective.
If you work in a toxic workplace or have a friend that does, you know it can be a deeply discouraging and draining experience. That being said, I’d like to help those dealing with toxic bosses, or those who are ensnared in toxic organizations. My coauthor, Dr. Paul White, has put together a helpful digital resource called How to Decide When It's Time to Quit Your Job. We’d like to give it to you ABSOLUTELY FREE (no strings attached).
