Book excerpt: IN THE SHADOW OF A TOXIC LEADER is a detailed account of how one female United States Army Sergeant First Class, with the help of her Commander and lesser individuals decimated the morale of her 20 member Movement Control Team (MCT) through 1) arbitrary policy-creation, 2) heavy handed group fracturing, 3) routine public humiliation, 4) infringement of privacy right, 5) racial, gender and religious discrimination 6) systematic character assassination, and 7) the enforcement of rules and procedures to reinforce these abuses. Despite the seven Army values of Loyalty, Duty, Respect, Selfless service, Honor, Integrity, and Personal Courage, this toxic leader was strategically able to use her position to manipulate and gain a firm foothold within the MCT. This initially allowed her to go unchallenged, which furthered strengthened her grapple-hold on the morale of the soldiers until the fallout cumulated into her eventual fall.Narrated by Eddie Peoples, one of the Soldiers who received the brunt of her bullying and who eventually facilitated her downfall. IN THE SHADOW OF A TOXIC LEADER takes a close look at the dynamics of systemic abuse arising from an individual leader being able to thrive and avoid elimination even in something as old and honorable as the United States Army.
