Hypnosis and speaking to your manager.
Manage episode 486270433 series 1577459

Speaking to the manager
I want to speak to the manager. Rather, I want to speak to your manager.
What do you think of when I say that? Do you think of the structure of your current employer? Do you make a joke that it’s your cat? Is there a spouse joke in there for you? Or are you immediately defensive?
There’s a reason you may be defensive, and rightly so.
Hypnosis, logging in as administrator, and reaching the manager
Have you ever been hypnotized? Have you ever had administrative access to a computer? Have you ever asked to speak to someone’s manager or been witness to someone else doing that?
Let’s talk about how all of these things are related, why it’s normal to be defensive, talking to someone else’s manager, and talking to your own manager.
Alchemy for Life™ podcast explores themes of experimental psychology, relationships, cognitive science, human behavior, mental models, consciousness, and psychological insights. We uncover hidden truths and ways to improve your life and get things done, or reduce stress and relax.
The latest book is BeCAUSE! The fundamental psychological building blocks that enable you to, or prevent you from, accomplishing anything, everything, and nothing.
