Face it, whether your company has 10 employees or 10,000, you must grapple with people you can’t stand in the office. Luckily Jonathan Littman and Marc Hershon have written I Hate People!, a smart, counter-intuitive, and irreverent turn on the classic workplace self-help book that will show you how to identify the Ten Least Wanted — the people you hate — while revealing the strategies to neutralize them.

Learn to fly right by the “Stop Sign” (nay-sayer) and rise above the pronouncements of the “Know-it-None.” I Hate People! will teach you how to carve out more time for yourself by becoming a “Soloist” — one of those bold individuals daring to work alone or collaborate with a handful of other talented people….while artfully deflecting the rest.

Genre:

  • "A bracing antidote to the management bromide that there is no 'I' in team. True enough, Messrs. Hershon and Littman would say -- but if you move things around a bit, there is a 'me.'"
