This book isn’t really about the rare, fire-breathing tyrants — it’s about the everyday leaders who, despite their best intentions, make life miserable for their teams.
Recognize any of these culture-killing workplace nightmares?
• Bosses hoard credit while dishing out blame
• Priorities change daily, leaving everyone scrambling
• Feedback that’s either nonexistent or a complete disaster
• High performers get frustrated while mediocrity thrives
• Endless hassles and meetings that could’ve been emails
Good news: It doesn’t have to be this way. Packed with real-world stories, humour, and practical fixes, this is the book every leader (and their team) wishes they had sooner.
Joel Hilchey is the CEO of Beanstalk Creative and a sought-after keynote speaker on workplace culture. He taught engineering for over a decade at McMaster University, where he was named one of the Top 150+ Alumni. He’s also a juggler.
