An Irish study into workplace bullying found that targets of
bullying were identified as introverts, conscientious, neurotic and submissive. This doesn't have to be the case and we must #EndToxicWorkCultures. #SMSSU2019
Despite a focus on workplace bullying, research into the phenomenon referred to as ‘upwards bullying’ (i.e. managers who are bullied by their staff) has received modest attention. As we talk about #EndToxicWorkCultures, we will dwelve into Upward Bullying. #SMSSU2019
The crowd was lit as people shared their experiences. It was great to note that good bosses do actually exist and that it is possible to be a great boss and a great team player. From lessons learnt, it is possible to #EndToxicWorkCultures#SMSSU2019
#EndToxicWorkPlace was a trending topic a few months ago. Many people shared their experiences in a bid to #EndToxicWorkCultures. Well, we took the challenge and hosted 'Rising Above Toxic WorkPlace on 9th June.
Mary: Acknowledging the beauty of having friends who stood by her throughout her journey. A call to all of us to in our own little ways be the dependable friend. In whatever way we can. It is never in vain #SMSS2019@dorcas_odhiambo@NjugunaAnn
DOLLY: People who are grieving need to understand that people around them are really trying to do the best to be there for them. And that people really do care about them #SMSS2019@dorcas_odhiambo@NjugunaAnn
Joan: Sometimes in the hurry of wanting to break the news on social media, most times you end up not giving factual information thereby causing a lot more trauma to the loved ones. You would rather wait for them to share the news themselves #SMSS2019
Dr. Ndegwa: Most times, men feel like they need to be strong for everyone. But men need to be aware that it is important to process the grief, to actually take time and allow themselves to go through the process. And it is okay to cry too whenever they feel overwhelmed #SMSS2019
How would you feel if you learned about the death of a loved one through social media? Ventura learnt about the death of her mother through social media, a heartbreaking way to receive such news. Be careful about breaking news of such kind on social media. #SMSS2019
Estehr was also a panellist during Grief and Loss discussion event. She has a deep love for the special needs ministry which was fuelled by her first son who was a special needs child. She spoke strongly about the need to allow children to grieve #SMSS2019@dorcas_odhiambo
April 14th 2019 marked the very first event of the Unspoken Chronicles. The discussion was on Grief and Loss. When comforting people who are grieving we need to be very sensitive about what we say, when to say it and how to say it.
Think about all the times you have scripted all the reasons why something would not work in your mind, well primarily because you are afraid. Many times, it doesn't actually happen 🙂😉#SMSS2019@dorcas_odhiambo
We build conversations on life's experiences by giving a platform where people can share their own experiences to build other people #SMSS2019@NjugunaAnn@LWGichaga
We seek to share stories of success and victory in a bid to give hope and restore the zeal to keep going even when the journey gets tough #SMSS2019@NjugunaAnn@LWGichaga@dorcas_odhiambo
@Unspoken254 we seek to give people of different backgrounds and with different experiences a chance to sit in one room and tap into each other's experiences and networks @dorcas_odhiambo@NjugunaAnn#SMSS2019
The key that opens the door to your next step in life is someone's experience and a platform to meet this someone. This is what we are here for #SMSS2019@LWGichaga@NjugunaAnn@dorcas_odhiambo @
