EPISODE 194

Are you in an abusive relationship with your boss?

Biggest Takeaways You Don't Want to Miss:
  • Sometimes a school or district culture can be so toxic that abusive behaviors seem almost normal.
  • You do not have to accept abusive behaviors from your boss. You ALWAYS have other options.
  • Whenever you let others keep you from fulfilling your full potential, you are cheating your teachers and students of the gifts you bring to the table.
  • You cannot sacrifice your conscience, health, or sanity at the altar of your ambition. If you think you have to be somebody else in order to get ahead, will you even like yourself when you finally arrive?
  • You should never have to “pay your dues” with pieces of your soul.
