Working for You Isn’t Working for Me

What can you do when your boss makes your work life miserable? From the authors of Working with You is Killing Me comes yet another book of wisdom, this time focused on the often problematic relationships employees have with their bosses.

If your boss is a control freak you may have to realize you’ll never change him but you can change how you react to him. The authors offer strategies for taking back your power and recognizing that your boss’s shortcoming aren’t necessarily your problem.  Building on their previous strategy of  detaching  emotionally from difficult people at work to cope effectively, Crowley and Elster identify broad categories of problem bosses and offer strategies for working with them without losing your mind.
