Scared of Your Boss?: Smash Through Your Fear Now! (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780998532424)

Every year 18 to 20 million American workers are less successful and less satisfied at work than they want to be. And it's not because of their job. It is because they are afraid of their boss. They see their boss as an all-powerful authority figure, someone who controls their work lives by being able to make potentially-disastrous, life-impacting decisions about them. Feeling one-down, they worry about speaking up, saying or doing the wrong thing. They worry about not meeting the boss's expectations and being seen as incompetent. They worry about being negatively evaluated and, perhaps, even losing their job. As a result, they feel anxious, threatened, depressed, frustrated, and angry-with their boss ... and with themselves. When this happens, they will likely, but unintentionally, sabotage themselves by focusing on those fears. Focused on themselves, they're less focused on being a productive employee, meeting their job's requirements and their boss's reasonable expectations.If you've ever experienced any degree of this "boss-phobia," this three-stage program of three weeks each is for you.
