Bosses: Gods, Monsters, and Mortals

One of the best compliments I was ever given was from someone who thought I was a pain in the arse.

He was the FD at a big agency who said to my then-boss, ‘You can say what you like about Christine Armstrong’—clearly he did—‘but you can’t deny that people really like working for her.’

Much as I love the comment, it’s only half true. Some people do like working in my team. Some really don’t.

In this context, this week’s vlog is my review of the book Jerks at Work by Tessa West.
