For anyone who has ever found that the boss who interviewed them was totally different from the one who they now work for ” even though they are the same person ” then this book is for you!
I found myself relating back to past bosses as I read the different profiles and thinking how different work could have been if I had known this stuff earlier. It profiles 9 of the main styles of “mad' bosses and managers, highlights their key warning signs and gives you plenty of tips for counteracting and dealing with their quirks and irritations.
Littered with case studies and anecdotes, which are both funny and sad at the same time, this book is brilliant. If you work as an employee, then please get this book. Even if you are happy with your current boss, it's a good idea to have a “heads up' before you go for your next interview. You may find it saves your sanity. And if you are already a boss or manager, then read this so that you can understand how your “madness' affects your staff.
