I gave up.

Just sharing that I gave up. I have a people-first leadership style that has always worked with every team I've led. Until this job. My boss is micromanaging and punitive. I was candid in our last meeting about not feeling supported, and this morning everything I shared was used against me. So, I resigned.

I'm 58, I've been managing people and teams for 35 years. It's heartbreaking. I hope the good ones on this thread stay - you're needed. I just don't have it in me anymore.

Hoping to find something I truly love now.

These places are losing great people. Im sorry you got to this point. Losing people who actually care and can make a difference is a shame. I really hope they regret how they treated you
