Description

In this episode, we’re back to call BS on even more business myths that sound good in theory but fall apart in the real world.

Last time, we tackled the so-called talent war, high-performing teams, and the search for “real leaders.” Today, we’re taking aim at three more corporate narratives that get repeated endlessly but rarely hold up under scrutiny:

“People don’t leave bad companies, they leave bad managers.”
“Everyone is replaceable.”
“Automation is always a good thing.”

If you've worked in the system long enough, you’ve probably seen the cracks in these ideas too. We’re pulling from years of lived experience, honest conversations, and a mountain of reading to unpack why these talking points persist, and why they’re often used to deflect responsibility or justify bad decisions.

Are these just oversimplified slogans? Wishful thinking? Or something more intentional?

Let’s dig into the nuance, challenge the narratives, and keep pushing for a more honest conversation about how work really works.
