Chambers shows ways that managers can identify underlying employee behavior problems and the steps to take and skills needed to make positive changes. The book includes a self-assessment for rating management style and organizational environment, twelve key questions for analyzing causes of problems, and many more very applied guidelines. This is a highly useful-recommended. A great book for people who manage people.

This book is well organized with specific suggestions to initiate and maintain positive change in the workplace. It is hopeful; it speaks of respect. It holds many, many ideas for improvement of relationships and work productivity . I very highly recommend its reading.

When you read it this book you will get that "aha" moment. This book gives you a better understanding on bad attitudes in the workplace and how to manage to survive these attitudes. It is a must read if you are surrounded by 'colleagues' with bad attitudes at work.

I found this book to be extremely helpful for diagnosing problematic behavior and sound advice as to methods of correcting it. I have shared this book with many of my managers and they are converts!

The insights and concepts in the book are simple, but effective. While reading the book, it will seem as is you already "know" much of the information, however, the book is organized in a way to assist the reader in utilizing the information effectively.

I have found this book useful when training new supervisors or retraining supervisors struggling to respond to "bad attitudes" within their staff. It would be useful for even experienced managers when taking over departments with reputations for being negative and unfriendly.
