Top-performing salesperson happily resigns after new toxic manager tries to undermine their approach to sales tasks: ‘Know your worth’

One of the work tales that is as old as time? A new higher-up joins the team, only to overturn and upend the entire working system because they can't comprehend how other companies run if they are following a protocol that is different from theirs. There is an influx of new toxic managers every year, whether that be because they are formerly scorned subordinates or have toxic rule-enforcing virtue. The corporate world fails to penalize and discipline crooked managers and other higher-up roles because the system works against calling them out. Being a manager means not only knowing your industry, but also knowing how to be an effective leader to a group of equals who are likely just as smart as you. The new manager featured in the story below fails to understand this, and this leads to the eventual resignation of a top-performing employee who brought in nearly a quarter million in profit in the last year.

The sales world isn't for the faint of heart. Knowing how to transform a sales schedule and lifestyle into something that works for you is the first step to attaining the work/life balance everyone so seeks. The employee who shares this story explains that they found a system that works for them, which, of course, includes remote work. This is the future, but toxic corporate soldiers with old-school mindsets refuse to wake up and smell the computers. Scroll below to read about how this employee chooses to know their worth instead of taking the heat from their new manager.
