We're challenging the most accepted wisdom in workplace culture - do people really quit bad bosses, or are they really fleeing broken systems? Join Product Manager Brian Orlando and Enterprise Business Agility Coach Om Patel as they engage in this heated debate and explore whether blaming individual managers lets dysfunctional organizations off the hook. Listen or watch as we also cover: Why good managers turn "bad" under systemic pressure The broken promotion pipeline from individual contributor to leader How measuring individuals while preaching teamwork creates conflict Why psychological safety can't survive in hierarchical power structures Spoiler alert - we don't end up agreeing in this episode, and that's OK! Whether you're a struggling manager or frustrated employee, this conversation will change how you view workplace dysfunction. #Leadership #Management #WorkplaceCulture LINKS Watch on YouTube YouTube: Spotify: Apple: Website: INTRO MUSIC Toronto Is My Beat By Whitewolf (Source: CC BY 4.0 DEED (
