Bystander Education: Take a Stand Against Workplace Bullying
Workplace bullying doesn't just affect the targets; it affects everyone in the organization, including bystanders. Witnessing bullying can be distressing and confusing. Do you feel powerless or unsure about how to respond? At the American Workplace Advocacy Center, we believe that bystanders can play a crucial role in combating workplace bullying. However, we understand that many bystanders struggle to take action due to the fear of repercussions and the stressful culture of bullying.
The Role of Bystanders
Bystanders often find themselves caught in a challenging position. They may witness bullying but feel powerless to intervene or worry about becoming targets themselves. Additionally, some may unknowingly contribute to the bullying culture. Our bystander education program addresses these complexities and provides practical tools to help you make a positive impact.
