This book helps professionals deal with difficult or even dangerous colleagues, employees or superiors - so-called "toxic people". Such people poison the work atmosphere, make life difficult for others, and cost their companies a lot of money. Some of these people are psychologically conspicuous; we are then often dealing with narcissists or psychopaths. In most cases, however, the destructive behavior is not (yet) based on a mental disorder. This book helps both those affected and those responsible in companies and organizations to recognize toxic people, to protect themselves and others from them, and to take promising action against them. This book is a translation of the original German 2nd edition Schwierige Menschen am Arbeitsplat by Heidrun Schüler-Lubienetzki and Ulf Lubienetzki, published by Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature in 2017. |
