The Hidden Cost of Toxic Behavior

December 02, 2025 02:00 PM - 03:00 PM ET

Toxic behavior in leadership isn’t just a people issue—it’s a strategic risk. Toxic behavior silently erodes engagement, productivity, and profitability, posing one of the greatest hidden threats to organizational performance.

In this session, Dr. Ryne Sherman, chief science officer at Hogan Assessments, will explore the behavioral and personality patterns that underpin toxic leadership. Drawing from extensive Hogan research, Dr. Sherman will explain the difference between toxic behavior and incompetence, the personality traits linked to counterproductive work behaviors (CWBs), and how organizations can identify early warning signs. Learn how scientifically validated personality assessment helps organizations mitigate risk of toxic employee behaviors and foster a culture of accountability and psychological safety where both people and performance thrive.

Join us to discover practical strategies to safeguard your organization from the hidden costs of toxic leadership behaviors and build a resilient, high-performing workforce.
