episode The Bully Boss cover

The Bully Boss

In this episode, we share a real story about a department manager dealing with a toxic, bullying boss in a retail environment. Over time, the manager faced constant criticism, public humiliation, and unfair treatment especially around serious health issues that required ongoing medical care. Instead of support, the boss used intimidation, made inappropriate comments, and even shared private information with others. The situation escalated to the point where the employee stopped attending important medical appointments just to avoid conflict at work. Despite strong performance and dedication, their ideas were dismissed while others received credit. Even after the boss was promoted, the behavior continued. We unpack the impact this kind of leadership has not just on performance, but on mental health, workplace culture, and retention. We also discuss what should have happened, including HR involvement, legal protections like ADA and FMLA, and the importance of respectful, compliant leadership. This episode is a powerful reminder: one bad manager can break trust, damage culture, and ultimately drive good employees away. #BadBossFiles #BadBossFilesPodcast #PulseHRSolutions #ToxicWorkplace #WorkplaceCulture #HRTruths #EmployeeExperience #BadLeadership

Episode 11: Hair Today, HR Tomorrow

In this episode, we talk about how workplace behavior is learned by watching others, especially leaders, and how quickly culture can be shaped by what managers say and do. When a manager makes inappropriate comments or crosses personal boundaries, it doesn’t just affect one person: it impacts trust, safety, and the entire team. We also explore what happens when an employee shows up, works hard, and dedicates themselves to a company expecting to be treated with respect but instead experiences behavior that makes them question their value. This episode is a reminder that leadership behavior matters. The way managers treat people can either build a strong, respectful culture or break it down. #WorkplaceCulture #LeadershipMatters #RespectAtWork #EmployeeExperience #BadBossFiles #LessonsFromTheWorst #BadBossFilesPodcast #PulseHRSolutions

Episode 10: I'm Just a Little Tipsy

In this episode of Bad Boss Files, we dive into a workplace where communication is one-sided, leadership is checked out, and accountability is nowhere to be found. What starts with a boss casually showing up to meetings “a little tipsy” quickly unravels into a pattern of behavior that erodes trust across the team. It shows how leadership sets the standard for culture and leaves once-happy employees wondering how they can navigate a toxic culture and it often feels safer to keep your head down than speak up. From blurred boundaries to outright misrepresentation, this story highlights how poor leadership doesn’t just impact one moment it shapes the entire workplace. It’s a candid look at what happens when integrity is missing, and why good employees ultimately choose to walk away rather than tolerate it.

Live & Unfiltered Let's Talk About Harassment

In this powerful live episode, we welcome our first-ever guest who bravely shares what it was like to work for a boss who regularly made inappropriate comments about her clothing and appearance. The lines kept getting crossed and she often found herself embarrassed, uncomfortable, and unsure how to respond. Sheri and Kate open up about their own experiences with workplace harassment and the ways silence can add another layer of harm. Together, they break down what should have happened, how organizations can respond better, and what real accountability and safety look like. This episode is real, raw, and unfiltered and a reminder that creating safe workplaces isn’t optional. It’s a responsibility. #BadBossFiles #LessonsFromTheWorst #BadBossFilesPodcast #PulseHRSolutions #Harassment

Liker at det er både Podcaster (godt utvalg) og lydbøker i samme app, pluss at man kan holde Podcaster og lydbøker atskilt i biblioteket.
