RESEARCH

Crossing the Line: An Examination of Toxic Leadership in the U.S. Army: a study designed to examine leaders in the U.S. Army to determine when negative leadership behaviors “cross the line” of acceptable norms (as perceived by military personnel), as well as why such negative behaviors are often tolerated or rewarded, Teresa A. Daniel, Gary S. Metcalf (Research was approved for funding by Sullivan University in April 2014).

Taming the Beast: How American Corporations Unwittingly Conspire to Make Workplace Bullying a Rational Choice: a study designed to understand workplace bullying from an individual, situational and systemic perspective in an effort to determine potential leverage points for intervention, Teresa A. Daniel, Gary S. Metcalf (Research was approved for funding by Sullivan University in April 2013).
