This episode of the Slog Pod explores the often-overlooked impact of luck on professional success and upward mobility. The discussion highlights how corporate narratives typically downplay luck, privilege, and timing in favor of promoting hard work and merit, which can lead to burnout and shame among employees. Various studies and personal anecdotes are cited to demonstrate the role of self-serving bias, the luck versus skill paradigm, and the importance of humility in leadership. The conversation stresses the need for leaders to acknowledge the influence of luck in their careers openly, to foster healthier workplace cultures and mental health. #TheSlogPod #WorkplaceCulture #LeadershipTruths #LuckVsSkill #CorporateCulture #MeritocracyMyth #MentalHealthAtWork #UpwardMobility #PrivilegeAndLuck #LeadershipHumility #WorkplaceWellness #ToxicHustleCulture #OrganizationalHealth #SelfServingBias #CareerGrowthRealTalk #LeadershipDevelopment
