82 - Your Team Isn't Failing - Your Boss Is

Narcissistic bosses can destroy team morale, employee confidence, workplace trust, and project performance. In this episode of Ignoring the Rules, Wayne Robertson talks about narcissistic leadership, toxic bosses, micromanagement, credit stealing, blame shifting, unrealistic expectations, and the damage caused when a manager makes everything about himself. Through the story of Hugo, a narcissistic boss who nearly destroyed his team before realizing he was the problem, this episode shows how toxic leadership creates fear, turnover, conflict, poor communication, and failing projects. If your team is afraid to speak up, make decisions, or tell the truth, the problem may not be the team. It may be the boss.
