Making the decision to leave a job can be one of the most challenging decisions that a person can make in their lives. However, when one’s workplace becomes toxic, making the decision about whether to leave can become urgent. If you find yourself miserable in your workplace and dreading going to work each day, it is time for you to determine what actions you need to take to get out of your toxic workplace and gain a sense of peace.

It is not uncommon to feel afraid, uncertain, and anxious when going through the decision-making process about whether to leave a toxic workplace. This book aims to help you make an informed decision about leaving your workplace.

From providing information about how to report workplace misconduct such as bullying, discrimination, and harassment to explaining the process of negotiating a severance agreement, this book was written to help you leave a toxic workplace feeling empowered and informed about your decision to leave.
