Your boss just stole your brilliant idea. Again. While you're sitting there feeling invisible, they're presenting "their" genius solution to the entire leadership team. Sound familiar? You're not alone. Idea theft is alive and well in Australian offices, and this week we're giving you the tools to fight back. We're also tackling the mortifying moment we've all had - crying at work - and helping a millennial navigate the tricky waters of managing a team of boomers. This week we're solving workplace dilemmas that hit close to home, from generational clashes to protecting your intellectual property!
What you'll learn:
• The Authority Paradox: How to earn respect when you're the youngest person in charge
• The Credit Protection System: Simple tactics to stop your boss stealing your ideas
• The Crying Recovery Plan: How to bounce back professionally after showing emotion at work
• The Generational Bridge: Why adapting your style (temporarily) isn't selling out
• The Paper Trail Strategy: Creating evidence that protects your contributions
• The Salary Reality Check: Australia's highest-paying jobs revealed (surgeons still dominating at $472K)
