Workplace Toxicity Is A Workforce
Cost Issue, Not Just A Compliance One

McKinsey

Toxic behavior explains 70%+
of intents to leave and burnouts1

Work 1

1 McKinsey 2022 survey of 15 000 employees in 15 countries

Work 1-2

M.I.T

Workplace toxicity contributes
10 times more to attrition than pay2

Work 2

Importance relative to compensation

2 MIT Research: Toxic Culture Is Driving the Great Resignation

Mild Everyday Toxicity is not the same as
Harassment/Discrimination

It is under the radar, widespread and ancient...But Millennials and Gen Z no longer put up with it

Harassment & Discrimination (Criminal)

Mild Everyday Toxicity*(MET)

Green Plus

Millennials and Gen Z talents
have the upper hand vis-à-vis
the employers

Green Equals

They are demotivated and quit very easily
(often for "futile" reasons)

Awareness, Trainings And Surveys Don’t Change
Values And Old Habits..

(and even sometimes backfire*)

..because non-delinquant toxic habits
(small power abuses, intrusiveness, harsh words...etc.)
are ingrained in many people,

Lord Acton, Montesquieu: "Power tends to corrupts..."

PSYCHOSOCIOLOGY

Lab. experiments show dominance pattern
even in highly educated individuals

(Zimbardo, Milgram ...etc.)

(*) Programs backfire-Harvard Business School - May-June 2020

ETHOLOGY

Studies show the universality of dominance pattern
in social species

(Goodall, Lorenz...etc)

Employee-to-Employee Anonymized Toxicity Feedbacks

Based on Social Cognitive Bias Effects

Carol sends an Anonymised Toxicity Feedback to John

Employee Employee
Group

Anonymized Toxicity Feedbacks may be:

  • Grouped with colleagues’ (recommended)
  • Or Individual

They concretely document John’s specific toxic behavior

  • It’s frequency
  • It’s impact on Carol’s health (anxiousness...etc)
  • Its impact on Carol’s work (demotivation, considering quitting...)

Why It Works ?

⇒ It triggers laboratory-proven social cognitive biases:

  • Ingroup cognitive bias
  • Consensus cognitive bias
  • Pressure cognitive bias

Green

...Moreover most employees are afraid to be seen

  • as a "bad guy"
  • or as the cause of attrition
