The Boss Survival Guide Bible

EXTREMELY INSIGHTFUL!!! What's more succinct, programmatic, and most of all ACTIONABLE. This is not one of those books that is full of fluff and theory. It gets to the heart of the matter and gives you practical and excellent direction. YOU NEED TO READ THIS BOOK!

lots of Aha Moments

Great book on how to work with different types of bosses. Some of it is fairly common sense, but it helps to put it into different categories and archetypes so that you can quickly identify and apply the right tactics.

Every working professional must listen

I cannot recommend it more because in career, we will be seeing various kinds of bosses. No single person can mentor you more than this book.

Annoying Narration, for a teaching book.

The Narrator is annoying, she reads the book with an attitude. This book is not intended to be read in this fashion, of performing arts. It is a teaching book and the attitude can be left out. There are parts of the book that can benefit from the performance art but majority of the book should be read with less force and more teach. At times the narrator is so bad that I cannot follow the content. I am not done with the book but I’m writing this review because I might not finish the audio, and might have to go pick up the hard copy. Wish I could return this audiobook.

solid advise for getting started

Great book on learning about personalities and identifying what makes people tick. highly recommended for someone starting to build out their career. mostly review fir someone 25 yrs into it... Excellent performance, we really enjoyed the audio portion!

an excellent tool for success

the material is both relevant and thorough. I must have for anyone with a boss. I would even recommend that bosses read it for perspective.

Exceptional read

Exceptional preparation for a successful professional life in Corporate America. Wish I read this book earlier.

Boss Survival Guide

Lots of tips on how to work with people (your manager) in a corporate world.

Great content!

The narrator’s tone when telling stories came across a bit mocking, and I had to try to ignore it and just focus on the story’s content.
