About this listen
The modern workplace isn't just broken—it’s a rigged system working exactly as intended for those on top. Welcome to "The Extraction Game," the invisible framework designed to drain the energy, ambition, and wealth of Millennials & Gen Z. If you feel like you’re running faster just to stay in the same place, it's not a personal failure; it's by design.
In this episode, we expose the enforcers of this game: the 5 Toxic Boss Archetypes that thrive in a culture of burnout. These aren't just bad managers; they are the gears in the machine. We break down:
- The Gaslighter
- The Urgency Addict
- The Teflon Executive
- The Company Loyalist
- The Performance Taxer
To understand how to build a new system, you first have to know what it's like to survive a broken one. Host Bianca Finley shares her powerful founder story—a raw account of escaping a traumatic childhood by creating her own reality, and how that fight for survival became the blueprint for her mission today.
But this isn't just a critique; it's a new blueprint. We lay out the 5 "Compound Effort" Leadership Archetypes that form the foundation of an alternative system—one built not on extraction, but on shared success and human well-being:
- The Architect
- The Gardener
- The Pathfinder
- The Bridge Builder
- The Catalyst
This episode is for anyone who is done playing a game they were never meant to win. It’s the playbook for opting out of the old system and starting to build a new one.
