The leadership book your team wishes they could send you.
The micromanager. The credit thief. The avoider. The hypocrite. The "mental health matters" boss who sends a 10 PM email on Saturday.
You know them. You have worked for them. Some of them, on your worst days, you may have become.
The Worst Manager is a brutally honest, story-driven exposé of modern leadership in the corporate workplace - the small daily mistakes that quietly destroy teams, careers, and mental health, written from the chair of the people doing the work.
Through fifteen unforgettable workplace scenes - the 11:47 PM Slack message, the slide that didn't have her name on it, the Mehrotra account given to the favorite, the all-hands speech that said amazing eleven times - author Aditya Jhingan does something almost no other leadership book has done: he tells the truth.
Not the truth managers want to hear. The truth their teams already know.
You will read this book and recognise:-
The boss who never said thank you - The team lead whose favourite always got the project - The CEO who talked about culture while burning out the workforce - The manager who avoided every hard conversation - The promotion that went to politics instead of merit - And, uncomfortably, the manager you might be becoming.
Whether you are a first-time manager, a senior leader rethinking your style, an HR professional, or an employee who needs language for what you are experiencing - start here.
