About This Episode Vicky Oliver, bestselling author of 301 Smart Answers to Tough Interview Questions and Bad Bosses, Crazy Coworkers & Other Office Idiots, joins us to expose one of the most overlooked threats to career success: self-sabotage in the workplace. Drawing on decades of experience coaching professionals and hiring talent, Vicky unpacks the subtle ways imposter syndrome, fragility, tech anxiety, and pride keep us stuck. In this candid and empowering episode, she explores the difference between bosses, mentors, and allies—and why surrounding yourself with the right people matters more than ever in today's evolving work environment. Whether you're struggling to step up or already leading others, this is a must-listen for anyone navigating the complex reality of work in 2025 and beyond.
This week on The Human Factor, we're tackling a bold question: can bad bosses ruin lives? It's a provocative title—but backed by real research. As we heard in our recent episode with Brian Dow, your immediate line manager can have more impact on your mental health than almost anything else at work. In this episode, we're joined by Debra to explore the psychology behind leadership, the difference between intent and impact, and the behaviours that define both “bad bosses” and great ones. Packed with stories, reflections, and practical advice, this is a must-listen for anyone who leads—or wants to lead better.
Workplace expectations are rapidly shifting to employees seek flexibility, purpose, and well-being, while organizations focus on performance, productivity, and culture. This episode will examine how companies can navigate these expectations to drive engagement and long-term success in a market that sometimes seeks to quiet the worker voice.

Righto team, today’s episode is one for the world of 2025. We’re talking digital well-being, leadership, and AI with the brilliant Bailey Parnell... because let’s be real, tech is changing the way we think, work, and even lead, and not always for the better. Bailey is an expert in how social media and AI impact our mental health, decision-making, and emotional intelligence, and she’s got an insight or two into how we can take back control. We’re unpacking why bad leadership is so damn common (and how AI might actually help), what social media is doing to our ability to think for ourselves, and whether we’re all just running a race we never signed up for in this hyper-connected world. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by the constant noise or wondered if you’re the one steering the ship (or if the bloody algorithm’s got the wheel) this one’s for you.

did a most downloaded episode I believe for year 2, an everyone seemed to really enjoy it including me. So we're doing it again as a year 3 episode! As with the last compilation I made, these are not necessarily my favorite episodes of the year: They are the most downloaded of the year. I think the top 3 even broke download records, so it's clear that people enjoyed them. This is a great way to peruse topics you may have otherwise overlooked or ignored, or great starting points if you're new to the show. I'm also super proud to say that this has been a massive year of growth with numbers doubling and tripling in most cases, along with an astounding 160 country reach and numerous top rankings in multiple countries and on several platforms. Starting us off at number 10 is: Bad Bosses with Jennifer Nash. We originally arranged this interview to talk about good bosses, but you all in the audience quickly decided you wanted it to be about the worst of the worst, and what's wrong with them. I'll also throw in a little (static) so you know there's a clean little cut in the audio segments. I can see why people found that episode a bit cathartic, but it was followed up with an interview that had most people concerned at the beginning. It was a reply to a tech specialist, done and voiced entirely by AI. At #9: The AI Reply with ChatGPT and ElevenLabs The speaking ability of computer entities quickly found its way deeper into the minds of the audience; as we dove into the human speaking ability in #8 Polyglot Means Multilingual with Joel Dubin But with these new languages, how were we going to find the money to travel to all these wonderful places? That's where we get #7: Becoming Wealthy with Bryan Kuderna Needless to say: All these new skills left us all a bit stressed out. Luckily, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder came in to save the day at #6: OCD with Chris Mason That puts OCD into perspective, but what about the ever increasing need to know about Autism? For this we turn to #5: Life with Autism with Sam Mitchell Autism can be an isolating experience, and #4 highlighted that all of life can be lonely if done wrong. This is: Loneliness with Shila Patel Okay… So we don't want to be lonely, right? Then why not find someone or something we cannot live without? Turns out that leads us to #3: Codependency with Dr. Sarah Michaud Alright! So we can't be lonely, AND we can't be codependent… Is there anything else to look out for, Colton? Yes, there is, my lovely audience member; it's #2: Narcissistic Personality Disorder with Danu Morrigan Wow… with such a heavy list, surely the number one must have been an all encompassing downer, right? No! In fact, #1 was almost exclusively uplifting: Providing valuable insights to how you can find passion and purpose in your life right now! It's Vitamin P with Corey Poirier Listener questions?: “Do you plan to focus on any topics more in the future?” -Mikah Rocky asks, "You had a recent announcement about a medical situation. Can you tell us more?" “How's listenership?” - Deborah “Did something happen to make you happier?” - Odila Favorite Reviews or Emails: “Dear JDE podcast, Thank you for releasing such unique and fascinating content. Not being largely into podcasts, I find myself oddly intrigued with what the next episode will dive into. Just a few weeks ago I listened to one where you had a sports related guest, they mentioned how physical activity such as running helps the mind from overthinking. Because you're so physically exhausted, you can't think deep enough to get overwhelmed in the moment. Being the fool I am. I translated this to intensely jogging on a break later that night to the point of being uncomfortable. Later, a co-worker was kind enough to invite me on their evening strolls and that was a much more enjoyable distraction. Sincerely, another dumb fan.” “Hello! Huge fan of the show, just wanted to send some. Compliments your way. Live, laugh, love babes! Cheers!” - Leo Velour I love hearing from listeners, even if it's just for them to say hey or share a moment. Now for just a little ego boost, let's look at some public reviews of the show: “I love this podcast. I always learn something. I've been listening for some time now and was fortunate to be a guest last year. Keep up the good work, Colton.” - Dr. Robin Hall “Colton Petry's Just dumb enough. Podcast is, of course, quite smart. All of his shows and guests are wide-ranging and equally fascinating. I find most shows with an international following such as this one. Are the ones to stalk. This one's a keeper.” -Best Things Ever “Colton ain't no dummy, He's a masterful interviewer who creates the best conversations that you just don't want to end.” - Jodi Top 10 Countries: United States, led by New York, Oregon, California, Texas, and Illinois. England and Scotland of the United Kingdom. Australia's own New South Wales and Victoria. Canada, with Ontario and British Columbia out front. Ghana, making a huge statement as a regular top 5 this year! New Zealand Ireland Germany South Africa India All 10 has routine time in the top of their charts, there was only about a 2% difference between #6 and #10, and #11 was even closer. Thank you all again for hanging out with me and my wonderfully dumb show for another year. I hope to have even more fun topics and wild knowledge for you in Year 4! That's it for this week! Have a great week, a great weekend, and I'll see you all back here next week for another new episode!

I try to not be super cynical but his shooting and that Secret Service detail seemed off to me • toxic masculinity is a thing and it doesn't have to be - it's just bad behavior that keeps being rewarded • natural leaders are scarce these days • the bar is low to be considered an amazing person - taking care of my mom shouldn't make me amazing that's what loving kind people do, right?

We're talking from experience about red flags, especially in the job search process, where your gut fits into decision making and how to listen for those flags. Kat tells her story from 20 years ago about her first HR Leadership role where she joined a company working for a husband and wife team. The offer was lower than her comfort zone with a bonus to get her there. She then needed to clock in, which is unknown in leadership roles. When Kat got home from her first week on the job, she said to her husband, “One week down, 51 to go”, but in reality, she left after 6 months to preserve her mental health and well-being. This decision led to Kat starting her own business which has been thriving for 21 years. Liz's story is more recent. A recruiter sent an AI-written no-personality job description, and then there was a fast interview process which led to a funky feeling. The offer came with terrible benefits - a big red flag that shows you don't care about people. The red flags were all true, and while she tried to focus on the positive, it ended up being untenable and her gut got a lot less twisty once she left. One big flag to point out is this: would you take the job if you had a job? If the answer is no, why? If it's because things don't feel right, listen to that! Official advice #1: The Job Description: Is it written by AI? Boring? Trying to help draw you in? Include company values? Do you know what the company does, what the job is, is there a career page selling you on the company? Official advice #2: The recruiting process. What's it like? Do you feel they know you at all? Is there a decision process or does it go on forever? Have you met your boss, a few colleagues? It's a red flag if you don't feel like they know what they want and what they're looking for. Official advice #3: Look at Glassdoor, PunchBowl, Reddit, and other sites that talk about the experience working at the company. Look for threads in the reviews- not just the 1 from an angry employee. Look at the recent feedback on what it's like there. The score is important, but know that companies try to manipulate their score….pay attention if there are lots of positive reviews with zero substance. Official advice #4: Is the team diverse? Look on Linkedin and see who works there. Is everyone white and under 30 in suits and ties? Do they indicate that they want diverse teams and points of view? Official advice #5: Does the benefits package indicate that they care about their people? What's covered? How much are they contributing? We've never seen a great place to work with terrible benefits. Official advice #6: Do they encourage your questions? Answer directly? Belittle you for asking questions? RED FLAG. If you ever feel like your requests are being blown off, word salad or more, it's a huge indicator of what the company is like to work at. Official advice #7: Your gut is saying no. If you're not excited about signing the offer, it's for a good reason. It's hard to not listen to your brain and your bank account, but let your gut have a say in the decision. If you do go against your gut, we've got some clear advice for you. Don't announce it on Linkedin right away. Don't stop interviewing >> if your brain and your bank account win out and you try something new, it's ok to keep interviewing if you really don't think it's a fit. Be artfully honest when people ask you how things are going- lead with the positive, but tell people you're still open to new opportunities. If it's not a big fit, look for the good people you haven't met, the story, the learnings. There are good things that come out of good stints.

We all love to trash talk bad bosses, but when I asked people what they thought the worst traits in a boss were: I didn't expect to get flooded with responses. Welcome to the Just Dumb Enough Podcast. A show that acknowledges no one is always an expert, by dispelling misconceptions with real experts. My guest today is Dr. Jennifer Nash. Jennifer and I were both sick at the time of recording and decided to make the most of it, using her two decades of experience as a leadership coach to break down what makes a person a bad leader. With a whole host of responses from listeners just like you, we had no shortage of examples. But if you think it's all goofs, think again as we drop nuggets like this: "Those employees were 50% more likely to have a heart attack or die of a stroke." Today's episode is great for venting if you have a subpar boss. Make a game of it and see how many points your leaders earn on the Just Dumb Enough survey. Hopefully any of you listening to this that are leaders, recognize a few things you can work on to be better. ( Www.DrJenniferNash.Com ) ( Www.Amazon.Com "Be Human, Lead Human" ) Let's hope we don't get fired after this! I hope you've enjoyed the boss bashing bonanza without being left feeling hopeless. Everything we've discussed today can be fixed, if the leader in question has a desire to fix it. In other news, the May rankings have changed just a bit since last week: 1. The United States, still led by California, Georgia, and Oregon. 2. England of the UK. 3. Australia, with New South Wales holding the lead! 4. South Korea. 5. Canada, returning the favor from last week and bumping Ghana off the list! That's it for this week!

Everyone wants to work for a good boss. That's not always possible. Sometimes, a bad boss is easy to spot. Sometimes, a boss who's been great will say something devastating.
