Building an anti-bullying work culture for leaders and teams

A group of work colleagues gather

While bullying is unfortunately common in New Zealand workplaces, it can be difficult to know how exactly to prevent it. The stakes are high; even low levels of incivility can undermine team cohesion and performance as well as the psychological safety and wellbeing of those being targeted.

Workplace bullying prevention is essential for maintaining a healthy, productive work environment. Our anti-bullying training equips both leaders and teams with the skills to recognise, address and prevent bullying effectively.

We have two versions of this introductory training – one for team members to understand how they can contribute to a work climate that actively prevents bullying, and one for leaders to equip them with tools to create a culture where teams are supportive, respectful and caring.

What's included in our anti-bullying training?

Effective leadership is critical in creating a work culture that actively prevents bullying and supports employee wellbeing. Our leader-focused training provides practical tools for building respect and managing workplace inclusivity.
