Straight-talk at work Grumblings in offices everywhere suggest that
there is not much that we crave more, but don't get often enough.
Beyond Bullsh*t reveals the dynamics of bullsh*t and why it has
become the corporate etiquette of choice. It also explains how
telling it straight contributes to personal well-being and business
success. This book is for people who wonder what it's going to take
to get rid of the constant deception and obfuscation that, at the
end of the work day, leaves them feeling beaten up, confused, and
even a little dirty. It is also for the people greeting them at
home, wondering, What's going on that takes such a toll? Pressed
for an answer, many explain it's all the bullsh*t I have to endure.
Even people who disdain deception find themselves involved in it.
They bullsh*t at work. After decades of research and consulting,
Samuel A. Culbert is convinced that straight-talk at work is
possible. But it requires more than luck and willing people.
Straight-talk is the product of thoughtful, caring relationships
built upon trust and a commitment to look out for one another's
success. Culbert describes this brand of truthfulness as a caring,
other-sensitive, candor-on-demand, loyalty-producing,
intimacy-escalating, give-and-take relationship, leading to
enhanced personal and organizational productivity. From an
organizational perspective, there's no greater contribution to
operational effectiveness and success than conversations in which
people with conflicting viewpoints discuss their differences
forthrightly. Readers will find this book personal--which is
unusual for a business book; they will think that many of the
stories are about them.They will be engaged and delighted as the
text demystifies the obstacles to getting beyond bullsh*t, and
guides them in developing straight-talk relationships at work.
