What Can We Do...Really?

Open Up the Conversation: We're all about open communication. Share your experiences with toxic leadership with your team, your subordinates, and even your boss. Find the support you need, and use existing, safe channels to report issues and seek support.

Leadership That Inspires: Join programs and dive into ethical leadership, empathy, and communication skills. It's all about shaping a positive work environment. Be as proactive - and productive - as possible in getting after the culture you want!

Call in the Reinforcements: Sometimes, we need a hero from the outside. That's where third-party consultants and coaches come in. They're experts in leadership development and conflict resolution. Their fresh perspective can really turn things around.

Hold Each Other Accountable: Step up your game. Leaders aren't just evaluated on achievements anymore. It's about fostering a healthy work environment. Consider asking for a 360-degree feedback process involving everyone... it's a way to get leaders to stay in check.

Don't let toxicity grow: Be all about tackling it early. Talk openly, and share feedback – your people deserve it. Even low-level toxicity won't stand a chance. Build a culture where your voice matters.

Knowledge is Power: Want to be the hero in your workplace? Dive into self-education. Read books, and articles, and attend workshops. Equip yourself to spot toxic behaviors and tackle them head-on. When you're informed, you're unstoppable.
