With the nation’s failing economy, many people believe they have no choice but to stick with a job—and a boss—no matter how difficult they are. But rather than just grin and bear it, Patricia King, author of MONSTER BOSS: Strategies for Surviving and Excelling When Your Boss is a Nightmare, says there are plenty of things your listeners can do to improve their work lives immediately.

Whether your audience is trying to cope with an energy draining micro-manager or a boss of questionable sanity, King will share the secret to surviving the workday and standing up for yourself without putting your job at risk.

King will answer questions using her 20 years of experience as a management consultant to Fortune 50 companies and a frank presentation of what’s really going on in your ornery “overseer’s” mind.

She’ll discuss:

• Why learning to identify your boss’ personality type is the key to “speaking his language.”

• How to disarm the boss who puts you down.

• How to keep your workload within reasonable limits.

• Why learning workplace coping skills will benefit you far beyond helping you to keep
your job.
