Visit to the Cranky Middle Manager Show

ByRod Adams

One of the most popular podcasts on The Podcast Network is The Cranky Middle Manager Show, hosted by Wayne Turmel. Wayne is a corporate trainer and manager who once spent some time as a stand-up comic. As you can imagine, his show is often worth a listen and turns out to be a pretty entertaining way to obtain valuable information.

He invited me on to his show for an interview the other day – you can find the resulting discussion at The Cranky Middle Manager #105 Nuclear Leadership- Rod Adams. (Truth be told, I have been begging Wayne for months to get me on the show and he finally relented. Perhaps he was just tired of my persistence.)

Please go over and have a listen. I think you might find it useful.
