“Being bullied by a serial bully is equivalent to being stalked or being battered by a partner or being abused as a child and should be accorded the same gravity.” ShouldChildrenPartnersBullyingGravityBullyBulliedSerialsBatteredBeing Bullied Author:Tim Field
“Recently there's been a trend to apply the term "bullying" to any kind of conflict at work, for example overwork and long hours. Although some bullying behaviours may be present in these issues, in my view this dilutes and devalues the term "workplace bullying" which should be used only for the more serious cases of conflict involving a serial bully. If there isn't a serial bully involved, it's probably not bullying you're dealing with.” IfsShouldKindMayLongUsedTermHoursViewsCasesIssuesExampleSeriousInvolvedConflictBullyingTrendsBehaviourWorkplaceBullyInvolvingSerialsLong HoursOverworkDevalue Author:Tim Field
