The Worst Manager in America

The Hyman Podcast

Toxic managers can turn a workplace into a battlefield, casting shadows over everything from team dynamics to personal mental health. Through a mix of personal stories and hard truths, I unravel the traits that define these figures of control and intimidation. My own experiences highlight the systemic forces at play, particularly as a black man navigating corporate America, and reveal how these toxic environments can devalue and undermine entire teams. Discover why choosing mental health over toxic workplaces can be a transformative decision, and learn strategies to shield yourself from these damaging influences.
As season four of the Hyman Podcast kicks off, I shine a spotlight on toxic leadership that can suffocate an entire organization. From manipulated budgets to unfair pay, I share anecdotes that underscore the long-lasting impact of such environments on employee morale and satisfaction. This episode wouldn’t be possible without the talented team behind the scenes, including Whitney Hall, Cherith Guest, and Mary Louise Layton, along with creative contributors like Kevin Ache and Grant Furness. Produced in collaboration with the Press Play Podcast Network, this episode promises to spark crucial conversations on workplace dynamics and human experiences.
