I experienced bullying myself during my school days and today I am extremely sensitive to unfair behavior. This book really spoke to me. The examples show very clearly how quietly and nastily some things can happen at work, and the many concrete tips are really helpful. For me, this is a powerful book for anyone who no longer wants to be pushed around.

Is an insightful guide that tackles the serious issue of workplace bullying. The author draws on two decades of leadership experience to provide practical strategies that go beyond mere theory. The clear, actionable steps help individuals assert themselves in toxic work environments and protect their health. What stands out is the blend of personal stories and professional advice, making the content relatable and engaging. This book is a must-read for anyone facing challenges at work and wanting to safeguard their career. Highly recommended!

What sets this book apart is its proactive approach. Instead of waiting for things to escalate, readers are taught how to recognize red flags early, giving them the tools to protect their mental and emotional well-being from the start. The advice on documenting difficult interactions is especially powerful, helping readers ensure their concerns are acknowledged—even when dealing with intimidating or abusive managers. The author doesn’t just stop at diagnosis; they provide a roadmap for building the kind of inner strength that allows individuals to stand their ground with professionalism and clarity. With actionable tips on assertive communication and emotional boundaries, this book helps readers reclaim their voice and dignity, no matter the industry or role. Equally important is its compassionate guidance on managing fear—something so many professionals internalize in toxic environments. Readers are gently coached through strategies that turn fear into focus, anxiety into action. Whether you're in a corporate office, a creative field, or a high-stakes industry, this book is a timely and vital companion for anyone who’s ever felt silenced, overlooked, or mistreated at work. It’s not just about surviving a toxic job—it’s about transforming how you navigate power dynamics with courage and confidence. Highly recommended for professionals at any stage of their career.

. Das Buch beschreibt sehr präzise, wie subtil und zerstörerisch Mobbing am Arbeitsplatz ablaufen kann – oft leise, manipulativ und schwer nachzuweisen. Die Praxisbeispiele sind nachvollziehbar, und viele der Strategien zur Abgrenzung, Dokumentation und Selbststärkung lassen sich direkt anwenden. Besonders hilfreich: die klare Struktur und die nüchternen Hinweise, wie man professionell bleibt, ohne sich überfahren zu lassen. Trotzdem gibt es einen Punkt, der mich einen Stern kostet: Einige Abschnitte bleiben relativ allgemein. Man merkt, dass viel Erfahrung dahintersteckt, aber gelegentlich hätte ich mir konkretere Fallbeispiele oder tiefere psychologische Einordnung gewünscht. Die Grundlagen sind solide – nur nicht immer so detailliert, wie es der Titel suggeriert.
