Mobbing is a modern term for systematic bullying, harassment, or psychological terror in workplaces whereby one worker is "ganged up" on and stigmatized by co-workers or superiors for no justifiable reason. Mobbing victims are usually individuals who demonstrate exceptional intelligence, competence, creativity, integrity, accomplishment, and dedication.

Research into the phenomenon has been pioneered by Swedish scientist Heinz Leymann.
