The paper presents results of a pilot study aimed to exploration of the forms of resistance to mobbing (bullying at the workplace) and their effectiveness. The aim of the study is to find out what strategies bullied people use in the fight against mobbing. Furthermore, how effective are the strategies used to address mobbing situation. The text outlines the theoretical basis and the results of a study which showed eight strategies of resistance. These are performances against mobbing person, avoiding direct confrontation with mobbing person, finding social support, exodus, change of work pace, distance from mobbing person, accepting negative labels and resistance through leisure activities. This study could not clearly answer the question of what strategy leads to a successful resolution of mobbing. Two strategies that were found help mitigate the impacts of existing bullying in the workplace.
