WBI response to J. Harper’s spurious claim of “anti-bully hysteria”
Friday, December 16th, 2011
A Dec. 15 post on the Huffington Post by bullied-out-of-her-career Janice Harper caught the attention of those of us operating at “ground zero” of the workplace bullying movement. Attacks on the movement are analogous to attacks on the originators and chief spokespersons — that’s us. Space to comment on other sites is too limited. So, I use our own platform to respond point-by-point on behalf of millions of bullied individuals. Her piece was provocatively titled: “Top Ten Reasons to Rethink Anti-Bully Hysteria.”

Workplace Bullies
by Annie Finnigan, Working Mother, Dec, 2011 issue
Nasty bosses and mean co-workers can make work a living hell, and working moms are often targets. Here’s what employees and companies need to know about bullying-and how to fight it.

So when the now 33-year-old mom of two boys became executive assistant to the mayor of a small city north of Seattle, in 2006, she figured she’d handle this job as well as the others. (more…)

The Wall Street Journal
October 13, 2011
