How mobbing differs from bullying — and what to do about it — featuring author Janice Harper - a podcast by Deb Falzoi

When someone in a position of power at work decides we need to go — and convinces the rest of the group we need to go — we may find ourselves the target of mobbing, a form of group aggression. But mobbing follows a predictable pattern, says cultural anthropologist Janice Harper who wrote the book Mobbed! What To Do When They Really Are Out To Get You. In this episode, Janice shares her research on animal behavior, group psychology, rumors, gossip, shunning, and false memory so you can detach from the predictable behavior and minimize the damage.
