“This person’s departure is an annual holiday!” This quote from Kusy and Holloway’s research on toxic personalities captures the frustration of dealing with difficult individuals in the workplace. Just one toxic person can cripple individuals, teams, and organizations.

Drawing on new research involving over 400 leaders, including many from Fortune 500 companies, it provides strategies for managing toxic behaviors, establishing norms to prevent toxic environments, and fostering respectful organizational communities. The authors identify warning signs of serious behavioral issues and explain how toxicity can permeate systems, impacting organizational climate long after the individual has left. Their two-year research study outlines specific actions leaders can take to mitigate the effects of toxic personalities. This book offers a unique menu of options from a systems perspective, emphasizing practical relevance in real-world situations. Readers will learn to recognize toxic personalities and understand ineffective leader responses. With research-based strategies applicable at individual, team, and organizational levels, this work offers fresh insights into leadership, organizational culture, and team dynamics in the presence of toxic individuals.
