    What about when youre the one pointing out consistent issues that management refuses to take care of, or are the cause of, and you become the scapegoat for voicing the issues in the first place?

      One of the first places I have clients explore is their own presentation of issues … what would be a way to find alignment of issues with team goals?
      There is a lot to this process and one I say there is often lots to learn from
      There are ways to revisit an at risk relationship to try and regain trust and safety
      Sometimes it is a leadership team issue and the best answer is to leave

      @@tammydunnettleadership i work in mental healthcare (unit), and the workplace dynamic is not always great. Ive witnessed a colleague being badmouthed at a meeting when she was not present. I have also been iced out of one workplace, but you are one of the few people saying that quitting doesnt necessarily help, which i think is a good point.

    It's so ridiculous, to have to even think....to 'negotiate' with the miserable ones....play footsy with the ne'er-do-wells. My greatest desire....is to find a good fit, out in the working world. Seeking maturity and kindness in others....as well as an environment that allows for a fun, and enjoyable day. Those that lead with their nasty side....are more than offensive. Can you imagine what they are like on the homefront???!! Eww! Dear lord...hear my prayer.... Darn, those bills!!!

      I agree having a place to work that is enjoyable and fun and a good fit is the ideal - and it is everyone’s responsibility to make that happen. Praying and hoping will not change the culture unless we all actively participate in it

    But in dysfunctional environments there is always a scapegoat and if you do not stay silent they scapegoat you....not talking about the fact that no one will defend you in exchange. Talking from experience...unfortunatelly.
