Introduction
In this episode, we are talking with Debra and Ken Corey, co-authors of the book Bad Bosses Ruin Lives, The Building Blocks for Being a Great Boss.

But as I read it more deeply, and started to talk with Debra and Ken, I realised it’s a book for anyone who wants to be a great leader or boss.
Why? Because we all have bad boss tendencies inside of us and can fall into the bad boss traps so easily.
Listen on...to lead on.
