Key Thoughts:It is possible for even the healthiest of companies to have some dysfunction, just like any family or group of people. However, a toxic environment is even more than generalized dysfunction – it is harmful. Michele (1:11)
Toxic work environments can be created by the owners and managers or by the employees. What is most important is that these attitudes and actions are recognized and stopped immediately. Michele (3:31)
Creating a company that others want to be a part of takes intention. That is what we focus on so much on this podcast – profitability by intention. Michele (6:34)
Just because your environment is toxic now doesn’t mean it must stay that way. And just because it is safe doesn’t mean it won’t become toxic. Michele (8:15)
