Toxic habits and behaviors can be found in many workplaces, these can eat away at morale and create mistrust, dissatisfaction, and disengagement at all levels of the organization. How do we fight back against toxic workplace roles without creating more toxicity and friction in the workplace? This workshop will focus on real-life strategies for addressing toxic behaviors in a way that builds relationships encourages structural and cultural change and addresses the root causes of the behavior.
