How to Play Chess While Your Manager Plays with Crayons
Host Miriam Simon breaks down why so many people in leadership positions shouldn't be there, sharing raw stories from her own career about toxic managers who micromanage emails and ignore employee input. She reveals how real leadership is about influence without a title, demonstrating how she strategically navigated around bad bosses to get her team recognized through behind-the-scenes chess moves that took three years to execute. Miriam exposes the one critical tool every leader lacks—actually listening to their people—and explains why employees are walking away from bosses who treat them like children instead of trusted professionals. This episode serves as both a wake-up call for current leaders and a blueprint for rising leaders who want to create impact, not just feed their ego.
