Review # 1 was written on 2011-03-23 00:00:00 Jim Casimiro I had originally picked up this book to help me when I was managing a difficult employee... and never got around to reading the book. I'm no longer managing employees, but I thought it might give me some insight into dealing with difficult co-workers. The information in this book is a bit dated (written for the 90's), but I still found much of it to be relevant. This book covers a nice range of topics, everything from personality types, managerial styles and dealing with personal issues. I really felt that this book covers both angles - the manager perspective and the employee perspective - very nicely. I did some skimming during the last two chapters as I felt I didn't need to read in-depth about counseling and terminating employees. It was still good information to have available and some of it I did find interesting. My one disappointment with the book was that it ended abruptly. I would have liked a recap chapter with a summary of all the chapters. It was a lot of information to remember and I think a summary would have brought it all together for the reader.

Review # 2 was written on 2012-01-05 00:00:00 Craig Davis One of the best textbooks I’ve ever utilized in the classroom, chock full of good info easily translated into presentations. For something I had to cram in info-wise is was not a chore but enjoyable, and I loved the media clips and resources provided to instructors. Excellent choice for an interpersonal text.
