Simply written and containingquizzes, checklists and sidebar examples, the book shows readers how to:- Recover from a major workplace faux pas- Handle sensitive e-mail and phone communications- Make a great impression on bosses, and get along with "enemies"- Deliver unwelcome information, including condolences- Manage confrontations with courtesy.
