004 Weapons of self preservation – the secret to surviving a toxic workplace

April 07, 2021 • Dawn Klatzko • Episode 4

How many people do you hear complaining about how “toxic” their workplace is? The use of the word “toxic” should flag this as extremely serious and yet we tend to shrug our shoulders and push on.

In some organisations it is ubiquitous and is woven into the very culture of the organization. In other instances the cause is focussed on a particular individual, usually someone in power. It may be a boss, a client or an influential colleague. The roles vary but the impact has a common, negative outcome. The cost often being both financial as well as reputational. So if you can gain a better understanding of the cause and then strategise how to protect yourself – it’s a worthwhile investment of time.

This episode will help you by providing insight to these key questions:

What causes this toxicity?

How do you identify the source?

What can you do to protect yourself?

How do you detox?
