Bullying Story
“Bullying can exist anywhere. It is about the image of power or perceived power and the heart of it is insecurity.”
“There's a senior-level executive, a scientist at a large pharmaceutical firm and he is very smart. He used his intelligence as his tool for bullying.”
“As I was facilitating an agenda, I called out his behavior relative to the objective of what we are trying to achieve in the meeting. I attempted to remain very calm and not engage because the bullying was not directed to me. It helped calm him a little bit.”
“Mindfulness in the part of the recipient of bullying is to don't engage in the same way.”
