Abrasive employees rub their coworkers the wrong way, with behaviors ranging from mild offense to open attack. Their bullying behaviors cause interpersonal friction that grates on subordinates, peers, and often superiors, eroding motivation and disrupting the smooth flow of work. Employees in leadership roles can inflict especially deep wounds and intense suffering in coworkers, customers, clients, patients and/or students, disrupting productivity. Managing abrasive workplace behavior is no easy task, and doing it ineptly, or failing to do it altogether can have disastrous consequences for your organization, your employees, and you.
