Inhaltsangabe

Are your duties slowly being removed? Are you being excluded from meetings? Did they put you on a PIP? Did you just return from FMLA? These are some of the many signs that lead to termination...

In a toxic workplace, there are always signs that your employment is about to be terminated—you just need to know what to look for. Written by the international best-selling and award-winning authors of Hush Money: How One Woman Proved Systemic Racism in her Workplace and Kept her Job, this survival guide is your roadmap to turning the tables on your toxic leaders and everyone they inspired to conspire against you, making it impossible for you to succeed.

This may be hard for you to hear, but what’s happening to you is not due to unconscious bias—it’s unconscious B.S. The people targeting you and derailing your career are fully aware of what they are doing. It’s not unconscious; it’s unconscionable.

Think HR is on your side? Think again. In a toxic workplace, HR’s role is not to protect you from your toxic leaders—it’s to protect your toxic leaders from you. They’ll weaponize policies, people, and processes to help toxic leaders push you out, leaving employees like you blindsided, jobless, and completely broken.

But it doesn’t have to end that way.

In this groundbreaking book, the authors share the proven strategies they repeatedly used to secure multiple large settlements, including six figure settlements, and help countless others do the same.

🔹 Understand the Warning Signs and Red Flags

• In a toxic workplace, when your supervisor asks for your process flow charts, SOPs, or documentation on how you do your job—it’s a red flag: you’re about to be terminated.
• In a toxic workplace, the slow removal of your duties is a big red flag designed to limit your exposure, decrease your value, and make it easier to manage you out of your position.
• Returning from medical leave (i.e., FMLA)? In a toxic workplace, you’ll be terminated 30 days later, as your absence gave your toxic leaders the alone time they needed to finish setting you up.
• Placed on a PIP (Performance Improvement Plan)? Brace yourself—in a toxic workplace, termination will follow 30 days later.

🔹 Fight Back with Proven Strategies

• The ‘E’ in Email Stands for Evidence: Learn why verbal conversations should never stay verbal and how to document everything to protect yourself.

🔹 Walk Away on Your Terms

• Remember, no one wants to stay in a toxic workplace, but no one should be forced to leave empty-handed either. This book will help you turn the tables, protect your career, and increase your chances of walking away with your head held high and your pockets full.

This isn’t just a book—it’s your toolkit for survival in environments designed to destroy you. Whether you’re being bullied, sabotaged, or targeted, Surviving in a Toxic Workplace will empower you to take control.

What’s happening to you is not unconscious—it’s unconscionable. Learn the signs. Learn the strategies. Reclaim your power.
