“BullyProof Your Business” is a powerful episode of Civility Matters featuring performance psychologist and author Dr. Rob Fazio. Together, we explore how subtle bullying and everyday incivility quietly erode trust, performance, and wellbeing at work. Dr. Fazio breaks down the psychology of power, control, and fear, and explains why “tough” leadership often crosses the line into harmful behavior. We discuss how to recognize early warning signs of a toxic culture, the hidden costs of tolerating bullies, and the risks for both individuals and organizations. Most importantly, Dr. Fazio offers practical, research-informed strategies leaders can use to set clear expectations, hold people accountable, and create environments where people feel safe speaking up. This episode is designed for executives, HR leaders, and managers who want to build a resilient, high-performing, and truly BullyProof business.
