Your Good Work Isn't Enough: Office Politics, Difficult Bosses, Boundaries, and Time to Quit - Softcover
Synopsis
You've been doing excellent work for years. Showing up early, staying late, hitting deadlines, delivering quality results. Meanwhile someone who spends half their day in meetings and produces mediocre output just got promoted. Again.
The problem isn't your work ethic. Nobody ever explained how decisions actually get made in organizations, and it's not through the official performance review process everyone pretends matters.
Every workplace has two org charts. The official one gets published on the website with neat boxes and reporting lines. The real one is invisible and messy, shifting based on relationships and who people actually trust rather than titles. That gap explains why things don't work the way you expected.
Merit is completely mute. Good work doesn't speak for itself. Working in silence is career self-sabotage, no matter how noble it feels.
You'll figure out how to map the invisible structure where decisions actually happen. How to build real influence when you can't just tell people what to do. How to work with impossible bosses without becoming a doormat. How to say no without getting labeled difficult. How to handle toxic people directly instead of avoiding problems until they explode. How to get recognized without shameless self-promotion. And how to tell the difference between a challenging workplace worth navigating and a broken one you should quit.
Based on current workplace research, not recycled corporate advice from decades ago. Each chapter ends with one thing you can actually do, not ten items you'll never complete.
Some of what's here will be uncomfortable because it means accepting realities about how workplaces function that you'd rather not be true. But pretending those realities don't exist just leaves you confused about why your career isn't progressing.
Approximately 95,000 words.
