EP 069 Tracy Boylin "I was a successful award-winning HR Director, and yet I was bullied out of the job I loved"
The Security Circle
04/17/24 • 51 min
About
Hi, I'm Tracy, the CEO of Organisational Genetics.
I know all about toxic workplaces and how they damage workforces.
As an HR expert of more than 25 Years, I've experienced bullying first-hand as Director of Human Resources at a world-famous NHS Hospital Trust.
As a whistleblower determined to highlight a damaging culture of enforced silence, I was threatened, persecuted, and eventually driven out of my job. And it didn’t stop there.
But what I learnt from these horrendous experiences and my subsequent campaign for justice was that I was not prepared to turn away. I was determined to fight for the truth – for justice – and to help others in similar situations.
More importantly, I wanted to prevent them from happening again. As a result, I have created systems to make raising concerns easier and that can also support the work of independent, external bodies.
My work helps organisations create a more open reporting culture, prevents individuals from being victimised or suffering retribution and ensures that a talented, committed workforce is retained.
My team and I help companies and organisations:
✅ Manage risk
✅ Reduce harm
✅ Promote respect through hi-tech live intelligence
To promote a healthier and more productive working life.
Connect with me and find out more, I am honoured to help.
