202: Don't Let Your Ego Be Your Amigo - with Eric Williamson, Author, How to Work with Jerks
Welcome back to America‘s leading higher education podcast! In this fantastic episode, sponsored by The Evolllution, we talk with Eric Williamson, Author, How to Work with Jerks! Eric comes on the show to discuss how unprepared students are for the workforce - they simply don't know what to expect particularly when it comes to dealing with bad bosses. Emotional intelligence is a necessary skill that is lacking in the leadership styles of bad bosses. How to Work with jerks teaches employees how to be self-aware and deal with the adversity that comes from toxic leaders. A further consequence of the books is an academy that Eric has created that teaches employees to "get stuff don't with people you can't stand".
As a professional development consultant, nationally recognized keynote speaker, and author of the book, “How to Work with Jerks,” Eric works at the intersection of professional development, leadership, and Emotional Intelligence. His programs help professionals manage conflict so that they can achieve their short-and long-term goals.
