Organizational chaos and relative powerlessness: breeding ground for bullies?
This research brief investigates workplace bullying as a consequence of organizational chaos and employee powerlessness, drawing on a meta-ethnography of 148 workplace studies by Hodson et al. (2006). The findings reveal that bullying thrives in disorganized environments where employees lack job security and clear structures, while bureaucratic systems—particularly facilitative ones—reduce such abuse. Notably, coercive bureaucracies with excessive monitoring exacerbate bullying, whereas transparent and rational procedures mitigate it. The study highlights a rise in bullying over time, correlating with the trend toward "flatter" organizational hierarchies. These insights underscore the need for organizational clarity and employee empowerment to counteract bullying. The research shifts focus from individual bully traits to systemic factors, offering actionable strategies for fostering healthier workplaces.
