Customer Reviews
Workplace Bully
Excellent information and essential in this day and age. Bullying in the workplace will not stop until we stop bullying in the schoolyard. Phoebe Prince's death was murder. She was bullied to the point of death.
A silent killer
I am amazed how the descriptions of other people's experiences marry with my own. Unfortunately this single mom is going to continue tolerating the bullying female supervisor until my children are out of college.
I never knew someone could do such damage to another person, but they do and hopefully there will be a way to stop it someday.
