Description

Ever worked for someone who seemed charming to leadership but left a trail of misery behind them? In this episode of A Word With Yourself, we dig into the unsettling reality of the corporate psychopath—how they get ahead, why no one stops them, and what it feels like to work for one. Then we shift gears and talk practical strategy: managing up—what it actually means, how to do it well, and why it can save your sanity.
