How "yes" people enable serial abusers — part of the workplace abuse playbook

from Screw the Hierarchy · host Debra S Falzoi

This week, the New York state attorney general released a 165-page report on Governor Andrew Cuomo's misdeeds, including how those misdeeds were allowed to fester: through his "yes" people, the loyalists who protected him. In this week's episode, I talk about how "yes" people enable and even embolden serial abusers and how they're part of the abuser playbook of abusing power above the rules while vilifying those who speak up.
