"The effects of conflict in the workplace are widespread and costly. Its prevalence, as indicated by three serious studies, shows that 24-60% of management time and energy is spent dealing with anger. This leads to decreased productivity, increased stress among employees, hampered performance, high turnover rate, absenteeism and at its worst, violence and death."

"At a competitive company, virtually every computer, software program, communication system and business process is less than three years old. Blink, and you're out of date. What do these changes mean for you? That you'd better be prepared for any eventuality. Pack your parachute and strap it on, because you never know when you'll need it. We're all in a career airplane standing much too near an open door. Complacency is dangerous."

"When it comes to the link between people and profits, companies get exactly what they deserve. Companies that treat their people right get enormous dividends: high rates of productivity, low rates of turnover. Companies that treat their people poorly experience the opposite -- and end up complaining about the death of loyalty and the dearth of talent. These are 'toxic workplaces,' according to Pfeffer, 52, the Thomas D. Dee Professor of Organizational Behavior at the Stanford Graduate School of Business."

"The bullying of adults in the workplace, although it is a phenomenon that has been with us for many years, has only recently been recognised as a problem of significance. With this recognition comes an awareness of the prevalence and seriousness of the problem. Workplace bullying causes great pain and hurt to its victims. Anyone, irrespective of personality or ability can be bullied. Reasoning with the bully, attempting to please them, exhibiting distress or anger are all frequently used but are inadequate victim responses to bullying."
