This week on the Lady Leadership podcast I caught up with workplace specialist and author Michelle Gibbings to talk Bad bosses!
At one time or another we've all had a bad boss – whether it’s through bullying and intimidation, unfair feedback or unrealistic workloads. Their behaviour sets the tone for what's acceptable at work and can cause major issues for productivity, staff turnover and wellbeing, especially in turbulent times we’re experiencing. In a tough or toxic work environment, how can we find harmony with those we work with?
In the new book, Bad Boss: What to do if you work for one, manage one or are one , workplace expert Michelle Gibbings draws upon decades of experience in corporate leadership to provide a practical transformation guide. She covers all three perspectives: the direct report, the boss and the boss's boss, helping readers quickly identify where the issue lies, along with actionable steps to turn things around if you finding yourself working for a bad boss.
Michelle says that bad bosses aren’t always bad people, and it takes work at every level to create an environment where everyone can flourish. If you dare to examine your own role in your current situation and take swift action, you’ll gain better relationships and greater career satisfaction.
Bad Boss is an essential read for anyone in (or wanting to avoid) a toxic work environment, filled with practical advice and actional steps to turn things around for any organisation.
Not only did we discuss Bad bosses and what to do and not what to do but we also discussed finding Joy and happiness plus spending more time in nature and doing the things that you love.
