Reviews

In this "how-to" book, Grothe and Wylie show that problem bosses are not rare, and then go on to offer 12 ways to handle such individuals. These range from doing nothing or changing your own behavior and attitudes to talking to your boss one on one or "firing" your boss (resigning, that is). The authors explain advantages and disadvantages of each alternative so that the employee can decide which might be appropriate in a given situation and understand what the risks associated with that alternative might be. Although much has been written on problem employees, problem bosses have not received the same attention. Recommended for collections serving abusiness clientele.
