Recently I published the second part of a two-part blog series on corporate psychopaths<\/a><\/strong> who are basically wolves in sheep\u2019s clothing. Often these wolves are at the top of the corporate food chain and are in senior\/executive roles. In the current article, I will discuss corporate scapegoats or sacrificial lambs that sometimes fall victim to these wolves … and more importantly how they can recover after being unjustly let<\/span> go.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Corporate<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>To be fair and accurate, not all employees who become corporate scapegoats are working for or with a corporate psychopath. Regardless, being scapegoated is a very real occupational hazard that happens rather frequently \u2026 even though it\u2019s not discussed openly in polite conversation.<\/span><\/p>\n

Lately, to see a real corporate scapegoat, all you need to do is go online to read or watch the news. In modern politics, certain high-profile staffers are being fired on what seems like a weekly basis. Despite the glaring evidence that most of those highly visible political employees have not even been employed long enough to have done anything wrong, time and time again we witness their very public and humiliating firings.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In much less scrutinized and publicized fora, hard-working employees also experience these unfair dismissals with little to no explanation other than being made to shoulder the errors and unwarranted blame from coworkers and superiors alike.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"corporate<\/a>So what does a corporate scapegoat look like? How can you tell? Maybe at first, it seems as if you\u2019re being singled out whenever something goes wrong (even if these problems existed before you began working for the organization). Perhaps you are being criticized for an error that is not even part of your work responsibilities\/mandate. \u00a0Or maybe, former positive performance reports, and\/or accolades are \u2018adjusted\u2019 to make you look like a poor performer. These not so subtle hints that you have become the chosen lamb led to the slaughter is as terrifying as it is perplexing \u2026 especially after being called into a meeting with the head office only to be \u2018let go\u2019 due to your lack of \u2018productive growth\u2019 or some other euphemism. And as you dare to stare your supervisor in the eye he just shrugs, shuffles a few papers with an awkward cough and allows you to take the hit.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

It is unfair. It is discouraging. Worst of all, it can be extremely damaging to your financial security and your future employment prospects. So how do you recover?<\/span><\/p>\n

Follow these four steps to start to get back on track:<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

1)<\/strong> Get<\/strong> your own legal advice <\/strong>immediately<\/strong>. Refuse to rely on in-house counsel or an outside firm that represents your employer, if offered. Your company\u2019s lawyer is not your<\/em> lawyer, and you are not their<\/em> client. Seeking advice early may preserve more of your options. Waiting to see how things play out may reduce your options. Also, be careful about relying too much on your union, if you\u2019re part of one. A union can\u2019t place your interests above the interests of other union members who are \u2018equal members<\/em>\u2019 and also entitled to the union\u2019s support.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"corporate<\/a><\/p>\n

2)<\/strong> Your lawyer will guide you through the process of wrongful dismissal<\/strong> (or other options).\u00a0This will help to repair some of the damage that your reputation has suffered. This process may also provide you with some severance money that will help to sustain you until you find a new job. Try not to waste time proving your innocence (that\u2019s your lawyer\u2019s job); instead, focus on getting back to work.<\/span><\/p>\n

3) \u2018Intersecting\u2019 issues<\/strong> may be at play. If there are other issues at play which may relate to sexual harassment<\/a>, workplace bullying<\/a>, or discrimination based on your race, ethnicity, sexual orientation\/identity, etc. I\u2019d suggest that you interview a few lawyers or ask around for a recommendation.<\/span><\/p>\n

4)<\/strong> To put it politely, being made into a scapegoat is traumatic and complicated<\/strong>. You’ll benefit tremendously from some help to get you situated into your next job. Some counselling or therapy<\/a><\/strong> will help you restore your self-confidence and process other emotions. Equally important and urgent is some reliable outplacement<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>that will provide you with the strategies and support that you need to line up your next job. Ideally, your former employer will cover the costs of the outplacement\/career coaching as part of your severance and wrongful dismissal package.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Note<\/strong> \u2013 this blog is no substitute for seeking the advice of an employment lawyer who will analyze your particular situation and guide you toward your best outcome.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n
