Description

Intro - Podcast Purpose: 
To share management leadership concepts that actually work.

You are responsible for your development as a leader.  Don't expect the boss to invest the training budget in your career.   Consider this podcast as an investment of time in your career, with a bit of management humor added at the same time.
