When Bullies become Bosses. Something CAN be done about it.
I have read again and again posts which talk about bosses who are complete Asses and Monsters.
There is an epidemic of people in leadership positions who are Bullies in the work place.
Know that there is a movement against this and a documentary is currently in production.

NO one should be subject to a bullying boss. I was terminated as the result of an individual who made it his mission to sabotage my position and succeeded.
Dealing with some of this at my job right now. I'll check out the site. thanks
Douglas, this is so important to share, and I'm glad you did it. No one deserves to be bullied in the workplace. shouting, swearing, abuse - all unacceptable in my book, no matter how stressed out you might be.
Thanks for sharing Douglas. There are two types of bosses. Ones who think they leaders and ones who are influencers. Most bosses lack people skills so they bully to get there way. Influencers on the other hand know how to treat people right to get the right results. Your task is to learn how to be an influencer and let the bully boss drink from his or her cup of poison, but not you. Best of luck.
