96. Case Study: Winning Against Public Smearing: Turning public criticism or gossip into a career advantage.

Welcome to "Unshakeable", the podcast that calls out workplace toxicity for what it is and teaches you how to come out on top, no matter what fresh nonsense your office throws at you. Today, we’re tackling a classic workplace weapon: public smearing. Whether it’s gossip in the breakroom, whispers in meetings, or a public takedown that leaves you reeling, smearing is one of the dirtiest tools in the toxic workplace playbook. And yet, somehow, it’s one of the most common. Why? Because it’s easy, it’s cheap, and if done right, it leaves the target—aka you—looking like the guilty party. Hosted on Acast.
