The Cycle of Harm

Hurt rarely stops where it starts. A hard quarter, a manager under pressure, an unspoken slight — and the strain travels, person to person, meeting to meeting, until it hardens into how a place simply operates. The Cycle of Harm traces that path in plain terms: how pain propagates through a person, and how the same pattern propagates through an organization. Naming the cycle is the first move toward interrupting it, before it becomes the culture no one chose but everyone maintains.
