Happy at Work

There is a powerful wave gaining strength against workplace psychological abuse. Not only the abuse itself, but also the subsequent processes of denial and deflection, which should have no place in our work environments. The movement is growing to unite with courage and commitment to recognise, respond to, and remediate these issues.

Nicole Turnbull's Neon Shed is a beacon of positive energy and innovation, leading the charge in this critical area.

I am honoured to connect with Nicole. On her "Under the Rug at Work" podcast, we discuss the complex journey of overcoming abuse and systemic dysfunction, and how, through courage and genuine solidarity, we can emerge stronger, happier, and better than ever.

'Happy at Work' underpins change and makes a real difference in five important ways -

1. Comprehensive Insight and Action: This book exposes the depth of workplace harassment—from its definition to its profound impact on targets and the organisational dynamics. It provides not just theoretical knowledge but actionable strategies for readers to navigate and overcome workplace challenges.

2. Expert Guidance and Real-world Examples: Benefit from expert insights and real-world stories throughout the book, with practical advice and a distillation of relatable experiences of over 250 accounts of workplace harassment. Learn from seasoned professionals and individuals who have successfully navigated workplace harassment, providing inspiration and guidance.

3. Holistic Approach: Because this book combines Legal, Emotional, and Professional perspectives, it offers a comprehensive, holistic approach to addressing workplace harassment, covering legal considerations, emotional well-being, and professional development. From understanding legal avenues to prioritising mental and emotional health, this guide empowers readers to reclaim control over their professional lives.

4. Empowerment for Targets, Bystanders, and Organisations: Unlike conventional guides, ‘Happy at Work’ addresses the roles of not only targets but also bystanders and organisations. It offers solutions for creating a positive workplace culture, recognising the impact on all stakeholders, and fostering a collective courage to stand against harassment.

5. Resilience and Transformation: From Victim to Victor: ‘Happy at Work’ goes beyond merely addressing the problem, empowering readers to transform from victims of harassment to victors in their professional and personal lives. Through practical advice, and personal growth and resilience-building strategies, this guide inspires lasting change.
