This review is from: Dealing with Divas: A Survivor's Kit for the Celebrity Personal Assistant (Or Anyone with a Pushy Boss) (Paperback)
This is a delightful book! Shelley has a wonderful sense of humor that shines through, and the anecdotes from her personal assistant career will certainly provide some chuckles for your day. On a larger scale, this book offers some powerful ideas on how to take charge of our lives, regardless of your line of work.

This review is from: Dealing with Divas: A Survivor's Kit for the Celebrity Personal Assistant (Or Anyone with a Pushy Boss) (Paperback)
This was a very enjoyable and fun read. I'm not a Personal Assistant, but I found this book to be very helpful in any working environment. As a matter of fact, I think the L.A.R.K. method will be very helpful in my everday life!

I loved it!,
By Coping in California (San Diego, Ca USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Dealing with Divas: A Survivor's Kit for the Celebrity Personal Assistant (Or Anyone with a Pushy Boss) (Paperback)
Well okay I'm the author so of course I loved this book! But seriously, it's a positive book about the celebrity world and I don't think anyone has written from that angle before. Also I include excerpts from my column, Dear Miss Know It All, so those are fun to read. Mainly, this is a book about how to cope in a tough job environment and is a good read for anyone with a pushy boss, not just a celebrity diva. We ALL know a diva or two in our world. Give this book a try. You won't regret it! Check out my website too: www.dealingwithdivas.com
