Moment #93 Rising Above the Concrete Layer

Moment #93 Rising Above the Concrete Layer

Moment #93 // Middle management jobs are the toughest jobs in any organization. You’re effectively the meat in the sandwich, and the senior leadership might see you as just another person in the concrete layer.


You get pressure from above, and resistance from below, creating incredible dissonance. This can increase your stress levels to the point where you’re downright miserable.


How do you rise above the concrete layer? How do you make your objectives clearer? How do you stop the never-ending tug-of-war between the allegiance you have to your boss, and the support you want to give to your people?


If you want to learn how to remove the dissonance-induced stress from your middle management role, have a listen to Ep.74: The Curse Of the Middle Manager
