Dr. Zimmermann's 14 year long research study shows the average grade employees give their management is only 68% out of 100%. No doubt jerk-managers are a tremendous detriment to business and to the performance and satisfaction of staff. The stories in this book are jerk-stories, told by people who volunteered their true-to-life sagas. Perhaps these stories sound very familiar to a jerk-story of your own. This book is for managers, and explores the reasons why so many jerk-managers exist, and what you can do to avoid being one. Traits of both good managers and jerk-managers are detailed.
