Worker Sues Deutsche Bank over Bad Bosses—Gets $1.5 Million
"[Helen Green] said she had suffered psychiatric injury after working in the bank's secretariat division from 1997 - when she joined as a company secretary assistant - until 2001… Miss Green…was verbally abused, ignored and denigrated to the point where she would sit at her desk silently crying.
"Deutsche Bank denied breach of statutory duty or bullying...The bank's counsel, Geoffrey Brown, said evidence given on Ms Green's behalf appeared to be describing the 'department from hell.'"
Ms. Green's boss at Deutsche Bank is a "Cult-Maker" type boss—a much more insidious type than the bully because of the intense psychological abuse inflicted. You can get inside the "Cult-Maker" boss's head and learn how to deal with one by reading Chapter 10 of "Who's Afraid of the Big, Bad Boss? 13 Types and How to Survive Them."
It's good to see justice in this case. These incidents are common here in the US, too; they are so difficult to prove that they rarely make it into court—but it's possible. If this is happening to you, take comprehensive notes and keep them in a safe place--learn how to do this in the book and read the tips at BigBadBoss.com.
