In this video, I tackle the silent disruptor that's poisoning workplaces: passive-aggressive behavior. Drawing from my leadership experience, I share a personal story of confronting this issue head-on during a company off-site meeting. I reveal why some people choose indirect hostility or “toxic positivity” over honest communication, and provide practical strategies for both individuals and organizations to create healthier workplace dynamics. Whether you're dealing with backhanded compliments or information being withheld, learn how to spot these behaviors early and address them effectively.
