Freedom of Choice

"Each moment is a choice. If [God] removed options, you lose freedom. You would not become the person striving to find the better way." - Gilbert Teodoro "You are free to make whatever Choice you want, but not free from the Consequences of the Choice." - Howard G. Hendricks #choice #good #evil #freedom #consequences #leadersarentbullies #healthyworkplaces #leaderselevatethoughtandconduct #liberty #psycholigicalsafetyatworkact #justice Some workers are willing, able, and allowed to bully. Their workplace offers opportunity to harm. Only a very small percentage of survivors, like pedophiles, choose to repeat the abuse cycle, yet all perpetraors were abused. It is a learned, deviant, behavior.

"Workplace culture reflects the leaders' priorities. Toxic leadership equals toxic culture." — Robin Sharma "In a toxic culture, fear replaces motivation and blame replaces accountability." — Lolly Daskal "Great leaders fix toxic cultures. They empower, involve, listen, appreciate, challenge, support, mentor." — Unknown #values #priorities #empower #listen #coach #LeadersArentBullies #HealthyWorkplaces  #leaderselevatethoughtandconduct #mentor #psychologicalsafetyatworkact #support  An existing, toxic, working culture where abusive behaviors are normalized as “the way we’ve always done it,” fosters ruthless and inhumane behavior and bullying.
