This article discusses the concept of toxic positivity in the workplace, specifically focusing on bosses who practice it. Toxic positivity refers to the excessive and unrealistic promotion of positivity, even in situations where it is not appropriate or helpful. The article highlights three red flags to watch for in identifying a boss who practices toxic positivity: surrounding themselves with yes people, providing excessive praise, and expecting people to be happy regardless of the circumstances. The author emphasizes the importance of balancing optimism with realism and validating employees' true feelings rather than dismissing them. The article concludes with advice on setting boundaries, seeking support, and remaining optimistic while staying grounded in reality. [Extracted from the article] |
