First of Nine Myths about Toxic Personalities

We'll publish one myth every week on the blog. Take a look at the first of nine myths or commonly held beliefs about workplace toxicity.
Myth #1
▪ Don’t mess with toxic persons who are successful.
Fact: It often costs more to do nothing.

Here are some of the facts about bottom-line costs:
• 12% of victims quit!
• Fully loaded costs of staff turnover are 1.5 to 2.5 times the exited
person’s salary.

We are interested in your stories and encounters with highly productive persons who are toxic and what your organization did to correct it (if anything!)
