“This is a timely must-read for managers and anyone who has ever had to deal with a difficult coworker; it addresses a ubiquitous problem in a proactive, positive manner that should get the desired results.” – Publishers Weekly
Everyone has a “schmuck” in their office—a difficult, disruptive person who upsets the workplace, confuses coworkers, and causes concern. It’s hard to understand why schmucks act the way they do, but one thing is certain—they seem to come in all shapes and sizes. . . .
– Narcissus—the condescending attention-seeker who carelessly steps on everyone’s toes
– The Flytrap—the bringer of chaos whose emotional instability causes an office maelstrom
– The Bean Counter—the orderly perfectionist who never gives up control, even when it’s full-steam-ahead to disaster
– The Robot—the unreadable stone wall who just can’t connect

She helps readers understand schmucks as people, figure out how to work with them, and ultimately solve workplace problems. She also makes readers consider the most difficult thing of all: despite where your finger may be pointing, sometimes you are the “schmuck”! Let Dr. Foster teach you how to make your workplace a happier and more productive one.
