    When Top Management Breaks Your Heart | Ep. 039

    You built something real. A team that works. A culture that breathes. A space where people feel safe. And then leadership started tearing it down — with empty slogans, chaotic decisions, and a total disconnect from reality. This episode is for every middle leader watching their hard work be dismantled from the top — while still trying to protect their team, values, and sanity. 🔥 In this episode: • Why it hurts more than just frustration — it’s grief. • The 3 traps most leaders fall into (and how they backfire). • What actually works when leadership is broken. • How to reclaim your power and lead with clarity, not bitterness. • Why you’re not crazy — you’re just the only one still awake. This isn’t about whining. It’s about naming the heartbreak of watching something good get broken — by the very people meant to protect it. 🎧 Listen if you’re stuck between performative leadership above you and a team that still deserves the best of you. You're not alone. You're not weak. You're rare. And this episode will help you hold the line — without losing yourself. 🔜 Next up: How to fire someone without losing trust. Especially in international teams, where dignity and communication play by different rules. 📌 More leadership insights:  🔗 ⁠https://alicatrizma.com⁠ 🔗 ⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/alicatrizma/⁠ 🎧 Sound Effect by ⁠⁠⁠⁠VFS World⁠⁠⁠⁠ from ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Pixabay⁠⁠⁠⁠. #Leadership #OrganizationalCulture #Teamwork #Integrity #MiddleManagement #ToxicLeadership #PodcastForLeaders
