Navigating the professional world can be daunting, especially when trapped in a toxic work environment. In Surviving the 9-to-5: A Guide to Toxic Workplaces, Chris Finley blends personal experience with research to help readers recognize, endure, and overcome workplace toxicity.
From manipulative colleagues to indifferent leadership, Finley examines both subtle and blatant signs of unhealthy cultures, revealing the emotional, mental, and physical toll they take. His candid stories—from early jobs to professional roles—show that toxic environments exist across industries. Drawing on sources like Harvard Business Review and MIT's Sloan School of Management, he offers insights grounded in both lived experience and credible research.
The book also provides clear explanations of employee rights under federal and state laws, along with actionable steps to protect oneself. Readers will find strategies tailored to different personality types, tips for building support networks, and tools to navigate difficult situations with confidence.
Key Highlights:
Surviving the 9-to-5 is more than a guide—it's a companion for anyone struggling in a toxic workplace, offering hope, empowerment, and the tools to reclaim a healthier professional life.
