Can employees learn to recognize passive-aggressive behavior in company leaders? The newly-published book, Blindsided--Recognizing and Dealing with Passive-Aggressive Leadership in the Workplace, will help employees become more aware of the negative impact that passive-aggressive leadership can have on them and their work environment. Frequent mixed signals from the boss about an employee's work performance or future career prospects, an employee who feels used or victimized by specific and persistent behavior in a company leader, or an employee who is often bypassed or ignored when it comes time for a promotion or a salary increase, are just a few of the signs to look out for. There are solutions for dealing with passive-aggressive bosses; awareness of how these leaders behave is the first step toward any potential solution.
