Jan was a 36 year old manager placed on suspension because her team would not work with her. Gedanken was called in to mediate between the team with a view to re-integrating Jan into the workplace. Following diagnostic interviews, it became apparent that Jan`s team was subject to a sub culture of covert bullying ably assisted by union members. Gedanken worked with Jan to support her in preparation for her return to work, mediated with members of the team who were not protagonists to the bullying to repair working relationships, coached lead managers in terms of restructuring and developing supervision frameworks within the team to ensure that bullying was minimised and supported the Chief Executive in relation to necessary negotiations that needed to take place at a higher level with the involved union.
