Preview โ The Goal
๐ฏ The Goal: The credit-stealer. The meeting interrupter. The 'just joking' put-down artist. The manager who criticizes you in public and sabotages you in private. Workplace bullies are a different animal from schoolyard ones โ they operate inside org charts and performance reviews, which means both doing nothing AND blowing up carry real costs. Here's what actually works, in escalating order: calm public counters that raise the price of targeting you, a paper trail that turns 'he said/she said' into evidence, and escalation done strategically. The core principle bullies understand instinctively: they pick targets who cost nothing. Your job is to become expensive โ professionally, calmly, permanently.
