Reporting to a Younger Boss? 7 Dignified Ways to Stay Relevant & Respected
When your new boss is 20 years younger than you (and possibly owns trainers your teenager wants), the emotional whiplash is real.
In this episode, I respond to a listener who's just landed under the leadership of someone they could have taught to drive. I share seven very practical, very real strategies for navigating this shift—without bitterness, without sarcasm, and with all the self-possession you've built up over decades.
This isn't about sucking up or staying silent. It's about dignity, relevance, and choosing to lead in a new way. Whether you're simmering with frustration or simply unsure how to proceed, this one's for you.
You’re not too old, and it’s not too late.
