I had the pleasure of speaking about bullying at TEDx Talk in Eustis, Florida. Bullying has been around since the beginning of time, and there is no shortage of ways to deal with and prevent bullying.
Listen as I explore a new approach I call, The Golden Rule Approach To Bullying. It’s simple:
“Treat others the way you would like to treated, as well as how they would like to be treated.”
Listen to the stories and see how effective this approach is in the full talk below:
Why Both The Victim and Bully Need You
Because they share some of the same characteristics, one being self-esteem, it’s necessary for us to advocate for both the victim and the bully. To effectively deal with bullying it’s important for us
• to understand both the victim and the bully
• to help them both develop a sense of empowerment,
• to empower them with the ability to not let others’ words or actions dictate our responding in a negative way.
Bullies are everywhere. In our schools, churches, workplaces, and homes. If you are looking for a coach or speaker for your school, organization or conference please email: Mark @ LifeToTheBrim.com
