Toxicity in the workplace is often discussed in terms of dealing with toxic coworkers, but rarely do we consider if we ourselves are contributing to a toxic environment. Based on 20 years of experience, toxicity manifests as feeling belittled, credit stealing, and constant complaints.


Leaders who drive results without acknowledging their team can also breed toxicity. Rather than simply labeling it as "toxic," we should identify specific behaviors causing issues. Signs of toxic behavior include taking credit for others' work, constant complaining, undermining colleagues, ignoring feedback, and showing favoritism.


Recognizing and addressing these behaviors, whether in others or ourselves, fosters a healthier work environment.
