Here’s the episode:

In this episode of The Indigo Podcast we discuss what we’ve likely all felt at one time or another— the big rift between “employee” and “manager.” We talk about how that rift can emerge, how we could align the “factions,” and practical steps to head in the right direction (because most of us don’t like to live in conflict).
