Newcomers in the workplace: the transformation from being bullied to self-growth
In a competitive workplace, newcomers often face many challenges. Among them, the way you get along with your colleagues is particularly crucial. However, some newcomers may experience unpleasant experiences, such as being bullied by certain co-workers. Today, let's explore a case where a newcomer to the workplace finally chose to quit because he was bullied by a middle-aged woman. Through an in-depth analysis of workplace rules and routines, we will help readers understand how to deal with similar workplace dilemmas.
1. Background and description of the incident
Xiao Zhang is a newcomer who has just joined the company and holds a position as an administrative assistant in a well-known company. However, since he joined the company, he has been bullied by a middle-aged woman, Sister Li. Sister Li is a veteran employee in the company, and she relies on her connections and resources in the company to often suppress and exclude Xiao Zhang.
Xiao Zhang works very hard at work, but Sister Li always finds fault and criticizes him. She will find all kinds of faults when Xiao Zhang completes his work, and even deliberately ruin his work. In addition, Sister Li will also slander Xiao Zhang in front of her colleagues, causing him to damage his reputation in the company. Zhang felt helpless and frustrated, and he didn't know how to deal with this kind of workplace bullying.
2. Analysis of workplace rules and routines
Power play in the workplace
Power play in the workplace is one of the main causes of bullying. In some companies, there is often a power struggle between old and new employees. Old employees may use their resources and connections to suppress and exclude new employees in order to maintain their status and interests. In this case, the newcomer can easily become a victim.
"Circle Culture" in the Workplace
The "circle culture" in the workplace is also one of the causes of bullying. In some companies, different circles are formed between employees, and there is often a certain amount of competition and exclusion between these circles. If the newcomer does not join a certain circle, or has a bad relationship with the people of a certain circle, then he is likely to become the target of bullying by the members of that circle.
The "Bully Mentality" in the Workplace
Bullies in the workplace tend to share some common psychological traits. They may have a high self-esteem, high self-esteem, or be insecure and need to bully others to seek self-affirmation. In addition, some bullies may also have personality traits such as aggressiveness and a desire to control. These psychological traits make them more susceptible to bullying towards others.
