- Abstract
Workplace bullies can be found in all organizations. Using a Narrative Inquiry and Arts‐Based Research methodological framework, this article shares the findings of a multiyear study in which 185 womens, in 27 states, and 15 countries share their stories of workplace abuse. Narrative Inquiry reflects the multilayered complexity of people's lived lives by inviting research texts that utilize diverse genres and mediums to tell the story of the findings. Art‐Based Research invites the researcher to mine for meaning on a level not fully accessible through traditional narratives and then share out insights in genres that generate deep cognitive dissonance while evoking empathy and urging response. The stories, poems, book review, observational field notes, dialogues, lists, charts, and visual genres were crafted by the researcher as representations of the saturated themes that emerged from the data and are supported by other empirical research. This is a multigenre that tells the stories of successful psychopaths and the resilient women who survived them.
