Do you hate going to work to feel like another cog in someone else's machine? Is there a dart board at your home with your boss's picture on it? Do you cringe when it is annual review time, or question if communication from senior leadership is a myth? Perhaps even pointing fingers and laughing at those who claim to have seen the CEO? If so, you may be suffering from Toxic Culture Syndrome (TCS).  

If you are suffering from TCS, you are not alone. According to research from Deloitte, only 12 percent of employees think their employers are “excellent” when it comes to driving the right company culture. Because culture is a top-down function and must begin with the CEO, this indicates poor or struggling leadership. This research indicates that 88 percent of organizations need to take a serious look at why their company is struggling with TCS. 

Fortunately, there is a cure for TCS. Join Doc Smith and Rich on this episode of Protect Your Patch as we discuss Toxic Culture and some of the signs that indicate you are struggling with TCS.
