About this episode

In today's episode of the HR Leaders Podcast, we welcome Debra Corey, co-author of "Bad Bosses Ruin Lives." Debra shares her insights on how common bad boss behaviors impact employees and what can be done to correct them. She introduces the "Three A's" approach—awareness, acceptance, and action—to help managers identify and address their weaknesses.

🎓 In this episode, Debra discusses:

  • The top 10 types of bad bosses, including the Unappreciator, Micromanager, and Coercer.
  • Why specific recognition is more impactful than a generic "good job."
  • The importance of managers listening to their teams to foster innovation and avoid the "Iceberg of Ignorance."
