About this episode
Have you ever felt misunderstood by a manager? If so, you know how frustrating—and downright demoralizing—it can be. Today’s caller, Mike, is stuck in that very situation. His manager constantly second-guesses his work, and Mike is desperate to find a way to get on the same page. To tackle this challenge, Jason is joined by Jenny Wood, former Google executive and author, to break it all down. Together, they equip Mike with a clear, actionable framework to transform his next conversation with his manager—turning tension into trust and frustration into forward momentum.
