Résumé: | Workplace bullying is a detrimental practice that has long-term negative effects. Previous research on the topic has focused on workplace bullying between management and subordinates or colleagues but not executive leaders as the target. Recent research shows 28% of ministers have experienced a forced termination at least once during their career. This study surveyed 582 ministers to learn from those who experienced a forced termination. The analysis revealed ministry demands, and the interaction between self-esteem, depression, and emotional exhaustion were found to have a significant relationship with forced termination. In addition, depression, ministry demands, and stress were found to be significant indicators of general health problems. The results of this study point toward a process of forced termination that may include: unresolved conflict as an antecedent to a period of bullying by members of a church, detrimental events leading up to a forced termination, and long-term and ongoing health problems. |
