Identifying Toxic Leadership in the Workplace:

Here are signs that your workplace might be full of executives, managers and teamleaders demonstrating signs of toxic leadership:

  • Individual Behaviors:
    • Bullying and intimidation: Do you see your own boss or another manager of even senior manager belittling employees, taking credit for others’ work, or using threats to manipulate people?
    • Micromanagement and lack of trust: Does your leader constantly check in on your work, second-guess decisions, and make it difficult to be autonomous?
    • Favoritism and blame games: Does your leader play favorites, creating a culture of competition and pitting team members against each other? Are you expected to take the fall for mistakes made by others?
    • Lack of empathy and emotional intelligence: Does your leader struggle to understand your feelings or concerns? Do they dismiss personal problems or create a stressful environment?
    • Deception and withholding information: Does your leader keep you in the dark about important decisions or manipulate information to serve their own agenda?

    • Unrealistic expectations and constant pressure: Does your leader set unrealistic deadlines or goals, creating a stressful and unsustainable work environment?
