The Bosshole® Chronicles

The Bosshole® Chronicles

Real Good Ventures

Never waste a good opportunity to learn from a bad boss. Our guests and Subject Matter Experts share their stories about challenging, difficult, and even mean bosses that they have had through their careers. Hosts Sara Best and John Broer explore what happened, what made the relationship difficult, and even the role WE play in our Bosshole experiences. More importantly, we apply some of our insight and analysis around behavioral science and emotional intelligence so that we (and managers listening in) can learn from the experiences and avoid common Bosshole® Blunders. If you have questions or stories you want to share, contact us at [email protected]

Happy Birthday, America! This week we reflect on the unique founding of this amazing country of ours and how a Bosshole® (of sorts) was instrumental in its beginning. Let's use this day to reflect on our many blessings and especially the freedom and liberty for which so many have fought and sacrificed so that we may preserve and protect it.
