Synopsis

Building on two decades of original research into workplace issues and friendship patterns, sociologist and consultant Dr. Jan Yager offers insights into how to succeed by mastering workplace relationships. Based on an international survey of 400 men and women and over 100 interviews, Yager discovered a relationship unique to the workplace and business. She calls it a workship--more connected than an acquaintance but not as intimate as a friendship. However, workships, especially positive ones, help work to be more productive and more fun and are the “safest” and least complicated connections at work and in business. Reviews and endorsements: “Solid advice about how to get along and make friends at work, as well as many relevant quotes and stories from people describing their own experiences with their co-workers, make Who’s That Sitting at My Desk? a useful guidebook to creating more productive work relationships.” —Soundview Executive Book Summaries “Anyone seeking to improve workplace relationships will benefit from reading this book.” —ForeWord Reviews magazine “A terrific and enlightening guide to understanding the various types of relationships that exist in the workplace and the ways your career can benefit from them.” —Josh Piven, bestselling author, The Worst-Case Scenario Survival Handbook: Work About the Author: Jan Yager is the author of 32 award-winning books, translated into more than 30 languages, including: Business Protocol; Grow Global; The Fast Track Guide to Speaking in Public; Productive Relationships; Effective Business and Nonfiction Writing; Work Less, Do More (2nd edition); When Friendship Hurts; and Friendshifts, among other titles.
