workplace management practices psychology and work workplace bullying mobbing and abuse 26 comments image courtesy of classroomclipart com academic life can be a great thing providing one with the opportunity to engage in teaching and educational activities scholarly research and writing and myriad forms of public service however the culture of academe can be petty mean exclusionary competitive and hierarchical bullying and mobbing behaviors occur with surprising frequency and sometimes with stunning brutality they can transcend the type of institution academic disciplines and political beliefs here s my short take on bullying in academe academicians are adept at intellectual analysis manipulation and argumentation when applied to the tasks of teaching scholarship and service these skills reinforce the most socially useful aspects of the academy but many of us who have worked in academe have seen what happens when they are applied in hurtful or even malicious ways of course exquisitely rationalized actions and explanations occur in many organizations but in dysfunctional academic settings they often rise to an art form after repeated such bludgeoning we may become accustomed to and sometimes all too indifferent towards intellectual dishonesty and rhetorical mal manipulation call it dilbert in tweed because this kind of mental facility often is at the heart of both perpetrating and defending bullying academe becomes a natural petri dish for such behaviors especially the covert varieties after all so many decisions in the academy are based upon very subjective judgments this can create a particularly attractive setting for the passive aggressive bully and the quiet but deadly mob bullying and mobbing behaviors among faculty receive the largest share of attention but the possible institutional status combinations are much more varied here are the most common ones administrator bullying or mobbing administrator faculty staff tenured faculty bullying or mobbing non tenured faculty tenured faculty bullying or mobbing tenured faculty faculty bullying or mobbing mid level administrator staff graduate students staff bullying or mobbing staff fortunately bullying and mobbing in the academic workplace is receiving more attention for those who want to investigate this topic further here are some good starting places faculty experiences two leading researchers on workplace bullying and abuse loraleigh keashly joel neuman offered these findings about faculty bullying experiences in faculty experiences with bullying in higher education causes consequences and management published in administrative theory praxis 2010 bullying by faculty tends to be indirect rather than direct due to the norms of academic discourse and collegiality tenured faculty who are bullied are more likely than untenured faculty to reduce their commitments to institutional work tenured faculty are more likely than untenured faculty to engage in direct aggression and bullying in response to perceived norm violations tenured faculty tend to direct overtly aggressive behaviors toward untenured faculty staff members or students tenured faculty tend to use indirect forms of aggression towards peers department chairs and senior administrators untenured faculty are more likely to use indirect and passive aggression against the perceived sources of their stress and frustration institutional cost cutting measures are associated with workplace aggression and bullying by faculty mobbing in academe kenneth westhues is a university of waterloo sociologist who has written a series of insightful provocative and exhaustively researched books about workplace mobbing in academe mostly involving faculty as targets his webpage devoted to academic mobbing is a rich portal of information ken s work which is grounded in meticulous case studies and analyses of how professors have been subjected to extreme mistreatment at the hands of administrators and faculty colleagues digs well beneath the surface he shows us just how twisted and frightening these behaviors and the rationale behind them can become often at the hands of intelligent successful people who claim to be fair minded ethical human beings ken and i don t agree on some key matters for example he generally opposes the enactment of workplace anti bullying laws and strongly prefers the term mobbing to bullying nevertheless his work in this realm is critically important his most important book in my opinion is the envy of excellence 2004 which explores in detail the mobbing of former st michael s college university of toronto theologian herbert richardson during the 1990s my response to the envy of excellence and general observations about mobbing and bullying in academe are contained in my essay david c yamada the role of the law in combating workplace mobbing and bullying which appears in ken s edited volume workplace mobbing in academe 2004

law management practices psychology and work workplace bullying mobbing and abuse 17 comments when i get more time to collect them i ll write a post on the arguments that opponents of workplace bullying laws are making to oppose extending legal protections to those who have been severely mistreated at work not all of these arguments are without merit but one of the most misguided claims is that a workplace bullying law would impose a civility code on employees and would allow people to recover damages for every little unpleasant exchange at work nothing could be further from the truth workplace bullying as many of us have come to define it is targeted and often malicious in fact the healthy workplace bill that i drafted which is serving as the basis of most of the workplace bullying legislation filed in the u s requires plaintiffs to prove malice a very high standard under the law how targets describe their experiences but this is much more than a legal argument we must remember that severe workplace bullying is a form of psychological torture this is borne out by the findings contained in an important 2006 article published in the management communication quarterly citation below communications professors sarah tracy pamela lutgen sandvik and jess alberts examined how bullying targets perceived their experiences and found that targets narratives were saturated with metaphors of beating physical abuse and death one target reported feeling maimed and character assassinated while others used terms such as beaten abused ripped broken scarred and eviscerated the bullying process was described alternatively as a game or battle a nightmare water torture and a noxious substance in describing themselves targets used terms such as slave or animal prisoner child with an abusive father and heartbroken lover citation tracy sarah j lutgen sandvik pamela and alberts jess k 2006 nightmares demons and slaves exploring the painful metaphors of workplace bullying
