How Do Toxic Bosses Behave?

Toxic bosses often show behavior that creates a hostile, negative toxic work environment.

Here are some common behaviours:

  • Micromanagement: Constantly monitoring and controlling employees’ work, even in minor details.
  • Favoritism: Treating certain employees differently, often based on personal preferences or relationships.
  • Gaslighting: Manipulating employees to doubt their own perceptions or abilities.
  • Bullying: Using intimidation, threats, or insults to control or demoralize employees.
  • Blame-shifting: Always blaming others for their own mistakes or failures.
  • Lack of respect: Disregarding employees’ opinions, feelings, or boundaries.

  • Unrealistic expectations: Setting unreasonable goals or deadlines that are impossible to achieve.
  • Poor communication: Avoiding open and honest communication, or using it as a weapon.
  • Creating a toxic organizational culture: Fostering a negative and hostile toxic work environment where employees feel stressed, undervalued, or unsupported.

If you are experiencing these behaviors from your own boss or manager, it is important to document them and consider seeking support from a HR-professional that you can trust, a trusted supervisor or a trusted external personal coach like I did.

However if you work in a toxic workplace where this type of toxic leadership is the predominant leadershipstyle, my personal advice is: leave asap as I did in 2011…..before its too late.
