Winning the Rat Race at Work Peter R. Garber

Winning the Rat Race at Work is more than just your typical career guide. It not only incorporates career advice but also helps you understand and more effectively deal with the stresses of going to work. Topics such as challenging performance standards, increased workloads, role conflicts, and the feeling of being caught in a maze are addressed in this unique book. The realities of work today include other challenges such as office politics, bad things happening to good careers, dealing with the "big cheeses" at work, the need for effective networking skills, and keeping good working relationships with coworkers and bosses. To overcome these challenges, Winning the Rat Race at Work provides you with case studies, interactive exercises, selfassessments, strategies, evaluations, and models. The book illustrates the stages of a career and the career choices that determine your future, and the book features a full chapter on identifying and dealing with different personalities at work. Read the book that HRWeb Review called "the most useful career management handbook that we have seen."
