5.2 Discussion. Toxic Leadership-Followership

Getting Started

In the Burke (2017) article on toxic leaders that is assigned for this discussion forum, you will learn that research suggests roughly half of all leaders fail to meet their organizational goals. Many of those failures may be traced to toxicity in the workplace; the list of words used to describe such leaders is long: dysfunctional, stupid, destructive, narcissistic, flawed, derailed, abusive, and more. Burke (2017) asserted that “toxic leaders are associated with negative attitudes toward leaders, poorer job performance, lower psychological health of employees, greater intentions to quit, and more counterproductive job behavior by employees” (p. 10). The author further stated that toxic leadership behaviors are possible to change…but doing so is not easy.

Upon successful completion of this discussion, you will be able to:

· Explain characteristics of toxic leadership and the resultant effects on followers.

· Compare and contrast toxic leader (and/or follower) behaviors with leader (and/or follower) behaviors that are considered healthy.
