Samenvatting:

What happens when the workplace becomes a battlefield?

For millions of professionals, this isn't a hypothetical question. It's their daily reality. Toxic workplaces don't discriminate - they exist in corporate offices, academic institutions, non-profits, and government agencies across the globe. They destroy careers, damage mental health, and leave talented people questioning their worth.

But here's what most people don't realize: what's happening to you has a name. It's not your fault. And you can survive it.

In You Got This!, Dr. Chinwe Adanze Effiong names a phenomenon that has been invisible for too long: corporate lynching. She explores how workplaces systematically target, isolate, and attempt to destroy high-performing professionals - particularly women and people of color. Drawing on decades of experience leading global initiatives, conducting research, and mentoring leaders across sectors, Dr. Effiong provides a roadmap for understanding and surviving workplace toxicity.

This book is not theoretical. It's grounded in real stories from real professionals across academia, non-profits, government, and corporations worldwide. You'll recognize yourself in these narratives. More importantly, you'll learn that you're not alone - and that survival is possible.

You Got This! offers:

1. Sectoral analysis of how toxicity manifests differently across industries
2. The anatomy of workplace targeting - how it starts, escalates, and sustains itself
3. Survival strategies grounded in practical wisdom and hard-won experience
>Dr. Effiong brings a unique blend of intellectual rigor, practical wisdom, and unwavering empathy to this work. She doesn't offer toxic positivity or victim-blaming advice. Instead, she provides the tools, perspective, and validation that professionals need to protect themselves, maintain their dignity, and reclaim their power.

Whether you're currently in a toxic workplace, recovering from one, or supporting someone who is, this book will change how you understand what's happening - and what you can do about it.

Your workplace may be a battlefield. But you have more power than you think. You got this!
