Everybody at work knows who they are. They can list them by name. They talk about them, are victimized by them, and may even miss work to avoid them. In this session, we’ll talk about the power given to toxic staff and what we can do to diminish their influence.

 

1. Identify the characteristics and skills of the toxic.
2. Assess the impact of the toxic to the organization, team, and leader reputation.
3. Discuss four major antidotes to toxicity and create a plan for managing the toxic.
