Are you being bullied at work?
Would you like to fight back?
Bullies, backstabbers and manipulators
Is there someone at your workplace who makes
you feel anxious, frustrated or angry? Does that person seem intent on
controlling your behavior against your will? Does he belittle, embarrass
or even humiliate you?
Maybe he is overly critical or micromanaging. He seems intent on intimidating or controlling you. Or he appears to support you one day, then undermines you the next. You find yourself on an emotional roller-coaster. You feel confused and manipulated. You feel like you are alone in an increasingly painful struggle against his clever, self-serving, destructive behaviors. Your job has become an ordeal and there seems to be no way out.
If this is your situation, then you are probably dealing with a workplace bully.
Over 30 million bullied
You’re not the only one. Roughly one-fourth of employed Americans have reported bullying at work. That’s over 30 million people.
Unfortunately, most targets of bullying lack the knowledge and skills
to effectively respond. Either they don’t understand the cause of their
problems, or they don’t realize that it’s possible to fight back.

such smug confidence in their ability to dominate others.In reading this website, you can separate yourself from the crowd. You can learn the skills and techniques to neutralize or even overcome the bully in your life.

What is a workplace bully?
On its surface, bullying is a simple concept. A
strong person acts harshly towards someone weaker, and the bullying is
blatant and habitual. It includes browbeating and threatening, verbal
abuse and yelling. everyone recognizes that person as a bully.
Obvious bullies ultimately fail
An obvious bully is noisy, overly aggressive
and blatent in his attempts to force others to comply with his will.
Resist him and he attacks like an ill-bred pitbull. In some toxic
workplaces, he may survive for years, or even become a high-level
executive.
But usually he will get himself fired. His nasty over-the-top
bullying is just too obvious. This simple, stupid version of bullying is
rarely a path to sustained success in the American workplace.Beware the clever bully
Because of this, a successful workplace bully
is usually much cleverer in his tactics. He rarely resembles the
stereotype. His methods are very subtle, disguised with all the right
behaviors.
In that lies his treachery. People respect and trust him, and he
quietly betrays their trust whenever necessary to fulfill his ambitions.
For him, the ends always justifies the means.And if the bully is particularly good at this, no one except his victims sees the betrayals. In some cases, not even the victims realize what has happened.
It gets worse and worse...
To make matters worse, a highly skilled bully
usually has the dedication, focus and business acumen to create success,
or at least the appearance of success. Then he is honored and promoted,
held up as an example of a company-centric leader. He is rewarded while
the frustration builds among the targets of his bullying and
intimidating, backstabbing and manipulating. For them, life has become
an upside-down hell..
Beyond the traditional definition of "bully"
A skilled, clever bully displays an elaborate,
complex set of behaviors to exploit people around him. Those who only
consider bullying to be blatantly aggressive behavior are missing the
point. Any habitual pattern of intentional, socially cruel behavior is
bullying, including the subtle tactics of deceit, distortion,
misreprentation and misdirection. When the penalty for resisting someone
is destruction of your position and reputation, it’s fair to describe
that person as a bully.
Using this broad definition, bullying has reached epidemic proportions in the American workplace.Accidental vs. intentional bullying
Not everyone who displays bullying behaviors
can truly be described as a workplace bully. If someone has genuine
concern for your well-being, he may be attempting to influence your
behavior for your own good. Just because you don’t like his approach
doesn’t make him a bully.
In contrast, a workplace bully has self-serving goals with a complete lack of respect or caring for others, who he never considers as equals. And among these moral and intellectual inferiors, he feels free to use any means necessary to gain compliance. It is his perpetual intention to dominate those he considers to be weak, naive, unaware or otherwise susceptible to his guile.
