Is your organisation in a downward spiral?
Workplaces around Australia face similar issues of toxicity and stress.
Read on to check where your workplace is on the spiral of workplace health.
Navigating the Spiral:
Understanding Toxic Workplace Culture
In the often tumultuous landscape of modern workplaces, the descent into a toxic culture can be a perilous journey.
At the Ripple Affect Institute, we recognise the destructive impact of negativity, conflict, and disengagement within teams.
Picture it as a metaphorical Emotional Spiral, with a vibrant green Spiral Up representing positive growth and a concerning red Spiral Down signifying a toxic decline.
In the face of a downward spiral, it’s crucial to understand that change is not only possible, but within reach.
The Downward Spiral: Recognising Toxic Patterns
In workplaces experiencing a red spiral down, signs of toxicity can manifest in various ways:
- diminished morale
- strained relationships
- a decline in overall productivity
- negative behaviours and communication patterns
- a toxic atmosphere that erodes trust and stifles innovation.
We see common themes and issues in workplace environments, such as:
- Challenges of reconnecting people in the hybrid world
- Toxic cultures
- High attrition rates
- Productivity issues
Recognising these patterns is the first step towards breaking the cycle and steering the organisation toward a healthier culture.
