The funny and practical guide on how to deal with difficult managers, colleagues, and teams, from the Sunday Times bestselling author of Surrounded by Idiots.
Being driven crazy by a micro-manager? Frequently drowning under your boss's unreasonable expectations? Struggling with being handed out responsibilities but no authority?
Behavioural expert and bestselling author Thomas Erikson is here to help.
In his inspiring – and, at times, funny – guide, Erikson shows how understanding your boss's behavioural tendencies, as well as your own, will lead to a more harmonious and productive workplace. Using his famous four-colour model, he shows you how to:
Decode your boss's or team's behaviour
Manage up and handle tricky feedback
Boost motivation and productivity across different personalities
Communicate effectively in even the most frustrating environments
Written with Erikson's signature humour and warmth, Surrounded by Bad Bosses (and Lazy Employees) will help you deal with hopeless managers and employees to build better relationships at work – and stay sane in the process.

'A good resource for understanding how different personalities communicate and deal with feedback...Everyone should read [it]' Business Insider
'Equal parts logical, emotionally astute, and gut-wrenchingly funny...Buy it!' Jim McPartlin, author of The Enneagram at Work
