  Join us Tuesday September 15th for our monthly meeting.

Our topic will be Workplace Bullying:  The Silent Epidemic

Presented by:  Amy B. Shannon, President of Pinnacle Leadership Solutions

 

Bullying is something we all hope not to have to deal with much beyond the eighth grade. Unfortunately workplace bullies are a problem many people face. Unlike playground bullies who often, not always, resort to using their fists, workplace bullies generally use words and actions to intimidate their victims.  

 

In our session, you will gain insight into the following topics:
• Identify warning signs of workplace bullying
• Highlight the types of and consequences of a workplace bully
• Learn to recognize the environment a workforce bully thrives in
• Discuss tips on HR’s role to confront, stop and prevent bullying at work
• Overview of the legislation on the horizon and legal aspects of workplace bullying
