How to Manage Your Manager

How to Manage Your Manager:

All the Credit, Half the Work

IF YOU CAN'T BEAT THE SYSTEM, TWEAK IT

Let’s be real, most of us are employees, and most of us are going to stay employees. Sorry to burst your bubble and your dreams of winning the corner office, along with your dreams of winning the lottery each week. Even as we work our way up the corporate pyramid, there will usually still be someone above us who gets to tell us what to do. That person has the better office, bigger house, and fancier car. Remember the 1%? The other 99% is the rest of us. We are the people who come in each day and do the actual work that makes the managers and executives look good. It is us that make the leaders great leaders, and we make the companies that we work for bigger and more valuable.

A mix of satire and slightly useful advice, this book uses real workplace examples to show you how to play the game in the corporate system and become a more valued employee without working harder.

What People Are Saying

Very readable and strangely so true. Denison entertains and educates. If you are reading Galbraith, Ishikawa, Drucker, Kaplan or Peters get a copy of this for some balance and a different perspective of modern corporations and how to succeed in them.

A brutally honest, marvelously Machiavellian guide to survival in the corporate world, “How to Manage Your Manager: All the Credit, Half the Work.” Simultaneously supercilious and self-deprecating.

Far too relatable! I didn’t want to turn the pages because I was continuously taken back to the horrible management I had to endure throughout my time in corporate hell, especially during my own stint as a call centre agent way back. I highly recommended this book to anyone who wants to change their outlook in the workplace.

This book was funny and slightly helpful.
