Practical Approaches to Managing Toxic Personalities at Work: What Every HR Professional Should Know

OVERVIEW

Who are toxic personalities?

“They are often known as narcissists, bullies, and clever chameleons who knock down, but kiss up,” said Dr. Kusy, author of his newly released book, Why I Don’t Work Here Anymore: A Leader’s Guide to Offset the Financial and Emotional Costs of Toxic Employees. They shame, manipulate, and belittle in public and private as their modus operandi. Leaders feel the angst they cause, but are often unaware of how prevalent they are or how much they cost—in terms of money and team performance.

Dr. Mitch Kusy will show you how to calculate financial costs of toxic employees in the workplace, as well as innovative and simple recruiting practices to avoid hiring these narcissistic personas in the first place. And what about those 51% of employees who are likely to quit because of a toxic person? Stay tuned for his innovative use of the exit interview that means business, resulting in cost savings with less turnover.

He tackles the two top questions he has received from many HR professionals: How to deal with a toxic boss at work? How to help organizations design cultures of everyday civility that mean business?

WHY SHOULD YOU ATTEND

• FEAR: Strategies are easier when your toxic person has performance problems, but what about leadership fears when toxic individuals are your organizational stars?
• UNCERTAINTY: Mitch shares how giving feedback to a toxic person is painful because of the uncertainty of results, but it can be done quite effectively.
• DOUBT FACTORS : He removes many of our doubts in this webinar by demonstrating how to integrate these strategies into daily practice—building new norms of respectful engagement that offset toxic behaviors. Positive organizational cultures are designed one strategy and one person at a time. He relates this through rich examples, robust practices, and clear strategies—all formed from Dr. Kusy’s research and evidence-based methods.
