Do you work with a d**khead boss? Does your workplace feel toxic?
Organisational research shows that 75% of people say their boss is the worst part of their job. Workplace bullying in Australia has nearly doubled in recent years, leaving some with mental health issues.
Why are so many people complaining about their workplaces? Why does work mean so much to people? Why do companies espouse values that aren’t truthful? Join an organisational guru, a bullying expert, a philosopher and a HR sage as they dissect how to deal with a dickhead and detoxify the office.
