Toxic Team Behaviors: Setting Boundaries, Giving and Receiving Support

Description

This online course shows you how to identify, understand, and constructively address unhealthy behavior in your workplace. It will help you (better) understand how devaluation, manipulation, sabotage, or social isolation differ from normal conflicts, which psychological mechanisms and group dynamics underlie them, and how affected people can recognize their limits, protect themselves, and dare to assert themselves.
