Show Notes

Most workplace “relationship problems” aren’t personality problems. They’re pressure problems.

In this episode of Wired to Work, Jess Chapman sits down with leadership coach Kate Franklin to unpack why stress turns reasonable people into version-2.0 disasters.. and why “just be more resilient” is NOT the answer.

You’ll hear:

•Why chronic pressure makes behaviour worse (and normalizes it)

•The real reason your boss relationship shapes your work more than your job description does

•How to get useful feedback (up and down the hierarchy) without setting off a threat response

•Two simple tools that cut through drama fast: “turn the complaint into a request” and the 15-minute rule (let it go or talk about it)

•A practical check-in habit that lowers friction in five minutes

If you’ve ever thought, “Is it them… or is it me?” — this one’s for you.
