Today I discovered a book that most of us would like to have in our toolbox on many occasions.
“Bullies, Tyrants & Impossible People (How to Beat Them Without Joining Them)” (published by Crown Books, Hardcover, 2005) by Ronald M. Shapiro, Mark A. Jankowski.
The book gives you practical tips on how to win over difficult people in various challenging situations or at least ‘tame the beast’.
I found out about this book through In Bubble Wrap which I signed for about 10 days ago. This is a brilliant idea from the people at 800 CEO Read.
Everyday they send an e-mail with an offer for a certain number of FREE copies of a book, a different book or offer everyday. It has allowed me to discover thoughtful and challenging pieces of writing.
P.S: Since that post 800 CEO Read was renamed Porchlight Book Company
