Donald Trump’s abrasive style isn’t just making it hard to run the White House — it’s handicapping corporate America, as well.

HR and leadership experts say a “Trump effect” has made a new norm of bad behavior, from dropping f-bombs to fudging details on resumes to spreading false rumors about co-workers, all of which stifles teamwork, dampens morale, and hurts productivity.

1. Fire him!

[Achilleaze]

2. Comrade Casino* - role model for republican "family values"

republican 'values" such as pissing all over honesty, integrity, decency and respect.

Freaking republican degenerates ought to pack up and move to Siberia where they can hang with their russian mob BFFs.

3. Big question

Why do they stay there?

???

Gluttons for punishment

Stockholm syndrome

Greed and power vampires

etc.

[PSPS]

4. Valid questions, but the OP is about how morale all across the country is in the dumps.

[LakeArenal]

5. Oh, gee, Dump is like a cancer...

Woulda thunk it?

[Sunlei]

6. Congress leaving the Federal Minimum wage at $7.25 an hour RUINED MORAL a long time ago.

Republicans want their man t(R)ump to ram home the BIG SCREWING of America and Americans.

No wonder America has the largest suicide rate in the world!

7. Not much easier if you're gay.

These trump people are so fucking stupid. The ones I work with especially. They are now claiming that any LGBT persuasions are now a mental disorder.

[progressoid]

8. Yep.

He and his followers are setting the US back a couple decades.

[SpankMe]

9. I can attest to this.

Trump folks here are more direct and rambunctious than ever. There's a new wave of arrogance, entitlement to "facts" and unswerving belief in fake news. Just this morning, a couple of Trumpers in here were almost explosive with indignation about Starbucks inviting DREAM'ers for free beverages, slamming Starbucks' nominal progressive nature as some huge moral and patriotic flaw.

Although the Starbucks/DREAM'er story was a planted, fake news item, it would have made things worse to point that out to these willfully blind Trump adherents.

The country's in trouble, folks. I've never been so pessimistic in my life.

[WhiskeyGrinder]

10. Huh, sounds like par for the course for "corporate behavior" to me.

[msongs]

11. not lbn it is opinion nt

[ProfessorPlum]

12. I don't think we can blame Trump for fudged resume details

I think that fudging on your resume has been a great American pastime since the invention of resumes.

[ffr]

13. Hillary being proven right, again.

Great for news outlets getting people to watch. Bad for the country overall, for obvious reasons. Great news for Putin though.

[ffr]

14. And again.

[They_Live]

15. Donald Trump ruins everything.

Everything.
