From the Inside Flap

Working Together But It's Not Working?

* You sit in endless meetings without a chance to participate because your colleagues always seem to dominate the discussion. * Your team is supposed to be solving a problem, but your co-workers keep getting sidetracked onto irrelevant issues. * You are diligently working to meet next week's deadline, but your boss keeps generating new plans, changing the entire project once again.

While workplace conflicts such as these are common, there are better ways to get the job done. WORK IT OUT uncovers the mysteries of how best to work together. Using a mystery theme to uncover how different personalities operate, personality type experts Sandra Hirsh and Jane Kise demonstrate the effects of different personalities at work and how to use this understanding to facilitate more effective work relationships, whether with co-workers, the boss, your team, or subordinates. Especially valuable for any manager responsible for helping individuals and groups work together--and who must deal with the fallout when they don't--WORK IT OUT will help you identify the strengths of employees, recognize areas of potential conflict, and bridge the gap when personality differences arise.
