Abstract
This chapter was designed to explore mobbing and bullying within higher education.
This chapter per the researchers revealed the theoretical framework, the schema of people
making versus bullying and mobbing as well as differentiating between bullying and
mobbing. Moreover, an array of examples of types of dark leadership and toxicity was
provided. Furthermore, the researchers felt it was imperative to include the
organizational culture applied to bullying and mobbing, in addition to the emphasis of
counterproductive behavior. Also, the physiological and psychological impact on
individuals under that leadership was provided as well as bullying and mobbing case
studies. Preventative measures of bullying and mobbing within all levels was discussed
and included a solution such as the TSTL survey created by Dr. David B. Ross. Lastly, a
conclusion was provided.
