"Evil Twins" cause a good deal of trouble for bosses. The Poynter Institute's leadership and management expert Jill Geisler believes most bosses have an Evil Twin. She developed her Evil Twin theory after seeing feedback on hundreds of managers that demonstrated a disconnect between the boss and the staff's perception of a boss's actions. For example: good managers who view themselves as "not asking anything of you that I wouldn't do myself" can be seen by their staff as their Evil Twin, the "Micromanager". So how do we control those Evil Twins? Jill shares advice in this podcast.
