Bad Bosses are a fact of the workplace, whether they\'re short-tempered, unclear about expectations, or too disorganized to manage so much as a stapler.
You might even be one.
You might have one right now.
Everyone has had a bad boss.
In Surrounded by Bad Bosses he applies that same system to revolutionize the workplace.
