Has the remote working phenomenon spurred by the pandemic caused an increase in gaslighting in the workplace?

On this episode, Robin talks with Dr. Heidi Brooks, Senior Lecturer in Organizational Behavior at Yale University, about this intersting phenomenon.

Many workplaces instituted a work-from-home policy during the recent COVID-19 pandemic. Now that more offices are opening back up, many employees are still eager to work from home. While the work environment continues to undergo change, there may be an increase in incidences of gaslighting due to the way that we now work together.

Robin and Heidi explore how someone in the workplace can "regain their reality" while navigating a work-from-home world, and how employers can create transparency and psychologically safe workplaces, so that emplyees will not be subject to gaslighting.

How can organizations become gaslight free zones? Check out the episode to find out!
