Explains how to cope with the pressures of career success, outlining strategies for coping with frustration, stress, boredom, unhealthy organizational practices, and other pitfalls

Bramson, author of Coping with Difficult People ( LJ 5/1/87), here presents a very readable text for those whose goal is to reach upper management. He adequately depicts the climb and its pitfalls, and he includes many real-life case studies. He gives guidelines for coping with work-related stress, the squeeze at the top, power plays, and unhealthy organizational practices which can cause value conflicts. Bramson provides short and useful self-assessment instruments and also offers many suggestions to keep from being overwhelmed as one rises in an organization. At the end of the book, he discusses the quest for a balanced life. A highly recommended self-help book.
