No amount of career counseling is going to help you figure
out how to get a coworker to quit snooping through your
e-mail, how to deal with an underground romance that has
accidentally become public knowledge, or how to regroup and
save face after a disastrous client meeting. Finally, here�s
a book that explains how the world of work really operates,
and how to navigate it.
On the Job combines the hard-hitting advice of Stephen
Viscusi, one of today�s best-known experts on job-related
problems, with enlightening "this could happen to you"
scenarios and true-life stories. In this manual for every
kind of on-the-job predicament, Viscusi provides strategies
for:
* Keeping your balance and sanity in an unpredictable and
frequently unfair world
* Establishing an identity that reflects your skills and
goals -- but not your most intimate secrets
* Communicating effectively in every venue, from meetings to
e-mails to gossip
Whether you�re starting out on your first job or you�ve been
at it for twenty years, On the Job is the only book about
working you�ll ever need.
