Description

πŸ‘‰ Free Resource: tbco.at/ambook Download The Active Manager book – your field guide to leading through uncertainty
In this episode of Business Leader Breakthroughs, Ryan Castle and Dr. Mike Ashby get real about the hidden cost of badβ€”or as they call them, crapβ€”bosses. They break down how poor management shows up in micromanagement, low trust, and missed opportunities, and how it kills culture, productivity, and engagement.

They share practical steps to move from micromanaging to active management, plus a story of one manager who shifted their whole approach with one mindset change. If you’ve ever wondered whether you’re too in the weedsβ€”or suspect someone else isβ€”this episode is a must-listen.
