Bullies in leadership positions create a toxic environment by attacking those they should ally with, utilizing intimidation techniques like personal attacks and emotional manipulation. They reject restraints, seeking instead to impose their control on others while justifying their abusive behavior. Despite a common perception of strong leadership that fosters cooperation, research shows that bullies actually perform worse over time, indicating that their aggressive methods betray not only their allies but ultimately undermine their effectiveness in leadership roles.
Bullies consistently undermine those they lead by employing personal attacks and humiliation, which fosters an environment of fear and dominance, ultimately damaging group cohesion.
Research indicates that bullies tend to perform worse as leaders over time, contradicting traditional expectations of effective leadership that promotes collaboration and respect.
