“This book is a contemporary classic—a shrewd and spirited guide to protecting ourselves from the jerks, bullies, tyrants, and trolls who seek to demean. We desperately need this antidote to the a-holes in our midst.”—Daniel H. Pink, best-selling author of To Sell Is Human and Drive How to avoid, outwit, and disarm assholes, from the author of the classic The No Asshole Rule As entertaining as it is useful, The Asshole Survival Guide delivers a cogent and methodical game plan for anybody who feels plagued by assholes. Sutton starts with diagnosis—what kind of asshole problem, exactly, are you dealing with? From there, he provides field-tested, evidence-based, and often surprising strategies for dealing with assholes—avoiding them, outwitting them, disarming them, sending them packing, and developing protective psychological armor. Sutton even teaches readers how to look inward to stifle their own inner jackass. Ultimately, this survival guide is about developing an outlook and personal plan that will help you preserve the sanity in your work life, and rescue all those perfectly good days from being ruined by some jerk. “Thought-provoking and often hilarious . . . An indispensable resource.”—Gretchen Rubin, best-selling author of The Happiness Project and Better Than Before “At last . . . clear steps for rejecting, deflecting, and deflating the jerks who blight our lives . . . Useful, evidence-based, and fun to read.”—Robert Cialdini, best-selling author of Influence and Pre-Suasion

In the spirit of the mega-selling On Bullshit, philosopher Aaron James presents a theory of the asshole that is both intellectually provocative and existentially necessary. What does it mean for someone to be an asshole? The answer is not obvious, despite the fact that we are often personally stuck dealing with people for whom there is no better name. Try as we might to avoid them, assholes are found everywhere—at work, at home, on the road, and in the public sphere. Encountering one causes great difficulty and personal strain, especially because we often cannot understand why exactly someone should be acting like that. Asshole management begins with asshole understanding. Much as Machiavelli illuminated political strategy for princes, this book finally gives us the concepts to think or say why assholes disturb us so, and explains why such people seem part of the human social condition, especially in an age of raging narcissism and unbridled capitalism. These concepts are also practically useful, as understanding the asshole we are stuck with helps us think constructively about how to handle problems he (and they are mostly all men) presents. We get a better sense of when the asshole is best resisted, and when he is best ignored—a better sense of what is, and what is not, worth fighting for.

‘Recognizing the shared nature of my thoughts, I am determined to see. I would look upon the witnesses that show me the thinking of the world has been changed. I would behold the proof that what has been done through me has enabled love to replace fear, laughter to replace tears, and abundance to replace loss.’ (A Course in Miracles, Foundation for Inner Peace, 2007 ACIM, W-54.5:2-4) After two decades in the financial services industry, Wayne Renroc, worked his way up through the ranks into a leadership position at Pigeon Financial until he walked away from it all! Wayne had grown tired of the toxicity in the workplace. A self-serving, inept, and mindless leadership team at Pigeon Financial destroyed employee morale and fostered a growing dysfunction among peers which fueled his desire to move on. Managing with an iron fist in a self-serving, egotistical, and mindless approach to the workplace their toxic ways spread like a cancer. Like the disease, these tyrants are so stupid and self-centered, they will not only destroy the morale of their teams (healthy cells) but will ultimately destroy themselves and the entire organization (the host/body). This is a compelling glimpse into the corporate world bringing to the surface growing disconnects and dysfunction in the workplace. Assholes to Angels calls out the tyrants who remain in positions of leadership. The many parallels between behaviors on the playground during our childhood and behaviors in the boardroom during our adult years are brought to the surface. Readers will learn a new definition of success based on the words of Albert Einstein from a century ago. Finally, readers will discover a way to see the angel deep within each of us. Assholes to Angles was written to honor and celebrate the true leaders who have left the working world a better place. Instead of stepping on and over people to get ahead, true leaders show people how to stand on the shoulders of giants to succeed. www.tomcorner.net www.assholestoangels.com
