    E72. Recognizing and Navigating the Dangers of Toxic Leadership and Followership with Dr. Riccardo Bodden

    E72. Recognizing and Navigating the Dangers of Toxic Leadership and Followership with Dr. Riccardo Bodden

    Have you ever worked under a leader whose very presence seemed to darken the room? Dr. Rickardo Bodden joins us to shed light on the shadowy subject of toxic leadership and the havoc it wreaks on organizational morale. Our in-depth conversation with this accomplished leadership consultant and author takes us through the landscape of narcissistic behaviors, the silent crisis of toxic followership, and the devastating turnover rates that often cry out for intervention.

    The narrative takes a sensitive turn as we confront the cultural chains of toxic masculinity and the concept of emotional incarceration. Dr. Bodden, drawing on his military background, shares the critical balance between competition and cooperation for team success. We're also taken on a journey to Turkey, where a soldier's battle against personal demons illustrates the stark reality of male suicide and the life-changing power of vulnerability and communication.

    Finally, we challenge the perception of followership and underscore its significance in any successful organization; stressing the need for followers to hold leaders accountable, and bravely confront destructive behaviors. In navigating the toxic triangle that enables the rise of corrupt leaders, we touch upon the consequences of unchecked power and the need for self-awareness. Dr. Bodden leaves us with an empowering message: personal growth and moral fortitude are indispensable in cultivating a climate of honor and integrity in leadership. Join us for this compelling exploration into the heart of leadership dynamics and the pursuit of healthier, more supportive workplaces.
