The Monkeys at the Top of the Tree

Anyone who has ever been in the workplace knows it’s a jungle out there, one filled with powerful predators, secret “rules,” and hidden perils. And the age-old law of the jungle keeps the big monkeys securely on top, leaving the other monkeys to fend for themselves on the tangled and treacherous jungle floor. This book knocks those arrogant monkeys right out of their trees by exposing what they don’t want everyone else to know: insider information on how to survive and even thrive in the workplace jungle. Within these pages you’ll learn the secrets to: making the interview and selection process work for you, ensuring you receive an accurate and effective performance review, knowing and making use of your legal rights when discriminated against, compiling critical and correct documentation to help your case, protecting yourself in a disciplinary review process, navigating the unemployment process, and perhaps most important of all, uncovering those unspoken “rules” your boss doesn’t want you to know.
