Title: How to Work for an Idiot: Survive and Thrive
Without Killing Your Boss
Author: John Hoover
Stars: ***
Have you ever worked for a boss that was a complete idiot? Odds are, if
you have been in the working world for a few years, you probably have.
Although he can’t pinpoint the reasons why, Hoover explains that
corporate America is full of them. He calls them I-Bosses. He claims that
having an I-Boss is actually not as bad as it sounds. There are, in fact,
bosses that are far worse! Hoover describes these boss types too. If you
have an I-Boss, the best strategy is to accept your plight and learn how to
thrive in the I-Boss’s environment. The book gives tips on how to do just
that.
Maybe you are an I-Boss too? Reading this book will help you decide. If
you are, there’s still hope. Hoover claims to be a recovering I-Boss
himself.
Although a bit exaggerated and repetitive, the book does have some good
insights and quite a few “Dilbert-like” laughs.
