⛔️ They can block your career progression and joy@ work

⛔️ They can break your trust and make you less trusting 

In this episode, Kelly shares the story of her brave client who left a toxic situation and rebuilt her life. Her courage is inspiring. Kelly Klein is a fellow coach and business executive, and is passionate about helping people realize their true potential.

Have you ever had a toxic boss? 

Remember,

👉 Life is too short to work with a toxic boss

👉 Life is too short to work with an egomaniac

👉 Life is too short to work for an unethical boss

👉 Life is too short to work for an untrustworthy boss

👉 Life is too short to work with someone who makes you miserable

✅ The only people who should ever become managers are those who derive joy and fulfillment from seeing their team shine, and grow. 

✅ I have never met a great leader who wasn’t a good human first.
