Ebook: We've All Done It: Getting Real About the Role We Each Play in a Toxic Workplace

Have you ever had a toxic leader? I bet you chuckled and nodded just reading that question. We all have!

Now for the next question: How many of your current and former employees see your face when they're asked that same question? I know I have a few people that likely see my face.

We've All Done It is a compassionate, yet humorous, look at the role we each play in creating and sustaining a toxic workplace. Whether or not we intend to, our choices either create, encourage, or, conversely, minimize and deescalate the level of toxicity and dysfunction within our workplaces. Together, we look at seven common workplace scenarios (think narcissistic leaders, leaders who are BFFs with subordinates, screamers, and much more) and consider when we have fed the proverbial toxic beast and how we can do better in the future.

The journey will help create self-awareness of our own toxic leadership tendencies. This includes self-reflective exercises with each scenario to help think through what is actually a toxic behavior, the impact and how we have shown up in similar situations before. This is the first step in understanding how you really show up as a leader and prioritize what you want to focus on for you and your team.
