Surrounded by Bad Bosses (And Lazy Employees) by Thomas Erikson

In this book, Erikson draws on his experience as a leadership coach to explain why bad bosses are so common and how employees can cope with them. Using his signature color-coded personality framework (Red, Yellow, Green, Blue), he shows how different types of bosses behave and how to adapt your communication style to survive—and even thrive—under poor leadership. The book also addresses lazy employees, workplace conflict, and strategies for creating a more productive environment despite dysfunctional management.
