Authors and mental health professionals Maureen Duffy and Len Sperry aim to explain mobbing, why it occurs, and how companies can eliminate it. As you read, you’ll learn how to identify mobbing, why it forces people to leave careers they love, and how a speak no evil company fosters a healthy work environment.
