Think reporting workplace bullying will fix the problem? Think again. Reporting isn’t a clean fix — it can be risky, draining, and often feels like you’re the one on trial. In this episode, Dr. Jan Kircher explains why reporting rarely plays out the way you imagine, how bullies build alliances before you even speak up, the role of documentation in telling a story HR can’t ignore, and what pushback looks like — with practical guidance on how to respond.
🎧 Listen in for real talk on what reporting actually looks like and how to prepare if you choose to do it.
