unions workplace bullying mobbing and abuse 9 comments sometimes it s the little victories that keep you going almost a year ago a union member for a public library asked me for suggested contract language to cover workplace bullying and abusive supervision i sent her the draft that i ve circulated to other union activists who have contacted me out of the blue she recently e mailed me to say that some of the suggested contract language had been incorporated into their employee handbook and that an individual who had engaged in workplace bullying was eased out of his position she added our situation is much improved and awareness of workplace bullying has increased among staff management and library trustees their original goal was to get some of this language into their collective bargaining agreement having been thwarted on that they persevered and got it into their employee handbook it s a start and this note shows that their efforts have had an impact nice if you d like a copy of the suggested contract language please send me an e mail with your name specific union local and your position with the union to dyamada suffolk edu it s based on the healthy workplace bill the anti bullying legislation i authored that is serving as the template for law reform efforts across the country share this print opens in new window print share on facebook opens in new window

2012 by david yamada in a note from your host 3 comments rockefeller center nyc dec 2010 photo david yamada i don t get around to writing out christmas or holiday cards these days but if i did i d make my own using this photo i took of rockefeller center two years ago i spent that christmas holiday with my awesome cousins in manhattan during which time the city experienced a full on blizzard it actually made for a more festive holiday in fact i have fond memories of trudging through the snow only horses dash through the snow with my cousins to a broadway show where the cast of la cage aux folles treated the hearty souls who filled up roughly half the theatre to an energized and fun performance so although this photo has nothing to do with work workers or workplaces i associate it with a memorable time and would like to use it as my holiday card to you dear readers this also marks four years of writing minding the workplace which i launched as a platform to discuss topics related to workplace bullying employee relations and surrounding issues of law psychology politics and economics overall the task of making human dignity a front and center priority in our workplaces remains a challenging one and i hope that this blog delivers at least a modest contribution toward nudging us in the right direction i wish for you a holiday season that allows for some meaningful reflection and good company fellowship and if you ve been struggling with some of the very realities that inform many of the articles here i wish for you a 2013 loaded with better opportunities and more humane

gaslighting mobbing psychology and work workplace bullying 32 comments specific workplace bullying tactics can run from the obvious and transparent to the remarkably deceitful and calculated among the most treacherous of the latter is gaslighting defined in wikipedia as a form of manipulation that seeks to sow seeds of doubt in a targeted individual or members of a group hoping to make targets question their own memory perception and sanity using persistent denial misdirection contradiction and lying it attempts to destabilize the target and delegitimize the target s belief gaslighting at work can range from orchestrated manipulative aggressor to target behaviors to hr officers expressing faux incredulity in response to claims of abusive mistreatment gaslighting appears on a recurring basis as a topic of discussion on social media among workplace bullying subject matter experts it deserves some attention here pop culture origins dr martha stout in her book the sociopath next door 2005 describes the origins of the term in 1944 george cukor directed a psychological thriller entitled gaslight in which a beautiful young woman played by ingrid bergman is made to feel she is going insane her fear that she is losing her mind is inflicted on her systematically by charles boyer who plays her evil but charming husband among a number of other dirty tricks boyer arranges for bergman to hear sounds in the attic when he absent and for the gaslight to dim by itself in a menacing house where her aunt was mysteriously murdered years before naturally bergman s psychological descent is hastened when no one believes her claims the almost psychopath as gaslighting expert i ve been touting the work of dr ronald schouten lead author of almost a psychopath do i or does someone i know have a problem with manipulation and lack of empathy 2012 ron talked about the almost psychopath at work during a new workplace institute program here s how nwi legal intern kim webster summarized his remarks on average one person in a hundred meets the clinical definition for psychopathy however schouten suggested that maybe we should be more concerned about the 10 to 15 percent of the population that almost meets the definition schouten noted that most disorders are defined by sets of standardized criteria for psychopathy a 20 item scale is commonly used measuring traits such as glibness or superficial charm a grandiose sense of self worth pathological lying manipulative behavior lack of remorse or guilt a shallow affect and a lack of empathy the almost psychopath falls short of meeting the criteria for psychopathy but nevertheless may exhibit many of the most disturbing traits and behaviors in the workplace a good number of almost psychopaths engage in bullying they often escape detection and removal as they charm their superiors and exploit and abuse their peers and subordinates i submit that among almost psychopaths you will find a bevy of gaslighting experts in fact the traits that characterize many an almost psychopath especially superficial charm pathological lying manipulative behavior and lack of empathy serve up a great skill set for gaslighting practitioners gaslighting at work workplace bullying as dr schouten has observed almost psychopaths can function and be successful in everyday society this means of course that a lot of almost psychopaths ply their trade in the workplace and when they engage in bullying behaviors woe to the targets especially babes in the woods if you ve ever experienced or witnessed gaslighting as a workplace bullying tactic then you know what i mean manipulative mind games twisted harassment and stalking behaviors are often accompanied by denials that anything is going on the goals are to undermine a target s confidence keep the target off balance and instill fear and paranoia gaslighting often is discussed in the context of spousal and family relationships it makes sense then that we see so many parallels between domestic abuse and workplace bullying perhaps the leap from ingrid bergman charles boyer to the office isn t much of one after all this post was revised in march 2017 in addition i posted a more general piece gaslighting at work the same month the new piece digs a little deeper into gaslighting psychology and relates the behaviors to management practices and opposition to labor unions free
