Building on two decades of original research into workplace issues
and friendship patterns, sociologist and consultant Dr. Jan Yager
offers insights into how to succeed by mastering workplace
relationships. Based on an international survey of 400 men and
women and over 100 interviews, Yager discovered a relationship
unique to the workplace and business. She calls it a workship--more
connected than an acquaintance but not as intimate as a friendship.
However, workships, especially positive ones, help work to be more
productive and more fun and are the "safest" and least complicated
connections at work and in business.
