Bad Bosses

Dr. Beverly Kaye is an internationally recognized expert on employee retention, engagement and workplace satisfaction. As such, she is an outstanding and eminently qualified resource on the subject of bad bosses, and is a practical, down to Earth commentator who offers common sense solutions to this (and many other) difficult workplace problems.

She is the co-author of two bestselling books with specific chapters devoted to what she calls "Jerk Bosses." Love 'Em or Lose 'Em: Getting Good People to Stay helps managers recognize and adjust their behavior to avoid falling into the syndrome of bad bosses. Love It, Don't Leave It: 26 Ways to Get What You Want at Work coaches employees on what they can do (as an alternative to simply quitting) if their boss is a jerk. Both books are published by Berrett-Koehler and are available directly from the publisher or from the 800-CEO-READ website.

Dr. Kaye also examines the larger issues of how bad bass behavior impacts retention, engagement and workplace satisfaction. Her research has shown that people tend to leave their jobs more often because of a negative relationship with their boss than for any other reason. Coupling this with the fact that we are entering an era with an unprecedented labor shortage, bad boss behavior can have a much greater adverse impact on an organization's success than ever before.
