Reviews

'Workplace bullying is tough for everyone. Preventing Workplace Bullying helps managers and consultants clarify what is and isn't bullying, and gives excellent guidance on how to deal with it.' - Charlotte Rayner, Professor of Human Resource Management, Portsmouth Business School, UK This excellent book offers good practical advice on developing organisational approaches to workplace bullying. Caponecchia and Wyatt avoid using individualised terminology -- such as 'bully' and 'victim' -- pointing out that it is too easy to blame individuals without considering the systemic factors that can allow a culture of bullying to persist. Instead they discuss 'unacceptable behaviours' and recommend using risk-management principles to address them. - Occupational Health [At Work] - June-July 2011
