Ep #229: The Danger of Less-Obvious Toxic Bosses and How to Handle Them

When we think of toxic bosses, our minds jump to the obvious offenders: aggressive, dismissive, openly rude – basically bullies. But what if I told you there’s a more insidious type of toxic boss lurking in the shadows of your workplace? The kind that isn’t overtly awful or confrontational…They may even be masking their toxic behavior by being overly nice to you. These subtle saboteurs are the real career killers because they manipulate you and hold you back from reaching your next level of leadership…and you don’t even realize it. In this episode of Women Changing Leadership with Stacy Mayer, I’ll show you the corporate badass way of recognizing and dealing with these terrible bosses so you can get unstuck in your career.
