Excerpts from Don't Run Naked Through The Office

        We recommend that your first option should be deciding to stay and prevail over a challenging workplace environment. The distinction is fight versus prevail. Fighting the environment provokes additional conflict and is a useless pursuit. But can you really prevail without fighting? We say, yes, if you have the right tools, and this book will provide you with those tools. In fact, this book is all about fully investigating how to leverage increased control over your workplace environment without provoking conflict. This means that you increase your chances of improving your working conditions without losing the tenure or seniority you have accrued in your current position. It also means that you are better able to depart on your own schedule and terms should you decide at some point that that course of action is in your best interest.

        It is important to focus less on the characteristics, bad behaviors, personality, or lack of management skills of your boss and pay more attention to what it takes to be successful in the environment in which you find yourself. Doing this requires some knowledge of the kinds of forces, both internal and external to the company, that influence your work environment.
        The complex mix of forces that influence your workplace environment may appear just as chaotic as those that shape the weather patterns which sometimes wreak havoc as they travel across the surface of the earth. However, unlike the weather, some of the forces that shape your workplace environment reside within your ability to control while others are entirely beyond your control. It is important for you to know which ones are within your control.
