Elitism among some managers. Terrible job in managing bullying tendencies. They need to identify differences between dominance vs. leadership behaviors. Some managers will scapegoat to give impression they are in control. Seen a number of people not bring concerns to Hr since they do not have mediation or conflict resolution skills. Number of “people problems”. Favoritism with domineering, manipulative behaviors. Could improve on defining, or recognizing good work or effort among team members. Many many opportunities to negotiate consistent standards. Every now and then, time away from work for bingo type games or cartoon characters everywhere to “demonstrate appreciation”. Communications can be disingenuous or even suffocating. Leaders get defensive or insecure when try to address issues of favoritism or elitism.
