Terms and Conditions:
On Today's show, we discuss… 1.07 Managing Your Manager (Gaslighting) The ability to lead from the rear or enact a desired change without touching the steering wheel is an art, not a science. On today’s show, the hosts talk about managing your manager and shrewdly getting them to come to an understanding of how to get the best product from you. Are you content with your manager or do you wish they were more sensitive to meeting your needs?
Question of the week: When have you felt like you were the only sane person at an insane workplace? Answer on Twitter, Instagram or leave a voicemail and we will play it on the show.
