"Most of us know what it is like to be bullied. A bully can only see things from one perspective--his. To a bully, the end justifies just about any means. The bully can be very effective at getting what he wants... Unfortunately, there are many bullies both in the business world and at home. They leave destruction in their wake and either don't realize it or don't care. Bullies leave a trail of pain, hurt, and humiliation. It can be effective, but the behavior only serves one person."
