Based on extensive interviews and research, Tame Your Terrible Office Tyrant™ helps employees understand their managers and how to cope with them when they are difficult and frustrating. It reveals the most common irritating boss behaviors, including childish and bullying antics.

Bosses will also benefit from this guide to gain insight on what not to do with their team. CEOs know instinctively that Terrible Office Tyrants (TOTs) wreak havoc in their companies, harming the bottom line.
