About this listen
This is the companion book to the online course Why Conflict Models Don’t Work When the Problem Is Bullying.
In this audiobook, author Jennifer Hancock discusses the differences between a conflict model and a bullying elimination model and how we can use elimination models to resolve both conflicts and harassment situations ethically and effectively.
Workplace bullying and harassment situations often masquerade as conflict. But they aren’t. Applying a conflict resolution model to a bullying or harassment situation makes the problem worse.

Do you know what it's like to be the boss? If not, have you always wondered? Being a boss is much more than just delegating tasks and hiring/firing employees. It tasks specific characteristics and traits to become a successful and effective leader in management. If your company rewards those who put themselves forward and take the lead, then it's time to show them what you're capable of. If your company does not, then it's time to show them what they're missing!

Story
One basic need all children have, educator Alfie Kohn argues, is to be loved unconditionally, to know that they will be accepted even if they screw up or fall short. Yet conventional approaches to parenting such as punishments (including "time outs"), rewards (including positive reinforcement), and other forms of control teach children that they are loved only when they please us or impress us. Kohn cites a body of powerful and largely unknown research detailing the damage caused by leading children to believe they must earn our approval.

Why is it so hard to change problem behavior - in our kids, our colleagues, and even ourselves? Conventional methods often backfire, creating a downward spiral of resentment and frustration, and a missed opportunity for growth. What if the thinking behind these old methods is wrong? What if people don’t misbehave because they want to, but because they lack the skills to do better? Or as renowned psychologist J. Stuart Ablon asks, what if changing problem behavior is a matter of skill, not will?

Very Validating
Listened out of curiosity to know whether I had tried to handle a bullying situation correctly as a manager. Indeed I did. Consistency is key. Ignoring inappropriate behavior or allowing it to trigger a conflict management response merely rewards it. It’s interesting how pop psychology has gotten us away from traditional approaches in the workplace and how that has increasingly made certain workplaces toxic and even dangerous. No tolerance for bad behavior is the way to go.

identifies the true root of bullying
Exceptional description on identifying bullying as a pattern of behavior when so many times it can be misidentified as a simple conflict.
Provides a framework on how to extinguish bullying behavior within a workplace. Would love to to hear how this can be applied within a school situation where bullying is quite rampant and doesn't seem to be effectively dealt with.

Great info
I'm being bullied at work, and I just can't afford to quit right now. This book is great for HR, but also helped me to understand why it's not stopping, even after reporting to HR. It doesn't solve my problem, but has given me some ideas on how to proceed. Workplace bullying is not illegal in the US, so the only way to defeat it is to learn about it, and try to mitigate.
