Tricks used by managers to sabotage competent people

Fortunately, I didn’t have the experience of a manager sabotaging my work, but I’ve heard from a few people that they did just that to them. Supposedly, their competence was a trigger point for managers to sabotage them in some way. Has anyone here... — read more
