BookNotes: The Octopus Organization #1: Stop Upholding Poor Leadership
Update: 2025-12-11
Description
In this Manager Lab episode we unpack the first part of The Octopus Organization and explore how to stop upholding poor leadership. The host explains why promoting bad leadership harms culture and productivity, and presents practical tactics leaders can use to change: speak last, build a shadow cabinet, connect through shared experience, create multiple feedback channels, stop one harmful behavior, develop self-awareness, and model empathy and vulnerability.
This short episode offers actionable steps to treat leadership as a behavior, not a role, and to cultivate leaders who create ownership, trust, and psychological safety across teams.
