How Not to Be the Best Employee: A Strategic Guide to Underperformance

You've been working hard, delivering results, and proving yourself every day. Yet somehow, your workload keeps growing, your effort goes unnoticed, and your so-called "high performance" becomes the baseline for everyone else. Sound familiar?

How Not to Be the Best Employee is the strategic guide for competent professionals who are tired of being overworked and undervalued. Vanessa T. Able teaches you how to protect your energy, manage expectations, and navigate office politics without confrontation. You'll learn how to deploy excellence strategically, use plausible mediocrity to your advantage, and embrace silent striking to reclaim balance and fairness.

This book isn't about slacking off-it's about working smarter, surviving without burnout, and thriving on your own terms. If you've ever felt like the system rewards effort selectively while the lazy get by, this guide shows you how to maintain your credibility, sanity, and influence without paying for it with your life.

Take control of your career. Do less, better, and smarter. You were never lazy-the system was.
