There's a lot of thef us are going back to the office where the game of thrown stuff happens. We need to understand jerks at work, which is your book. And we're going to start talking about that with a jerk quiz. You dn't have say anything or do anything. You can keep your answers private. I but these questions come from some you created a very large list of questions. i want you to imagine this, reading these earlier to day actually made me very angry at a people that don't exist that popped into my head. So thank you very much.

In this live taping of the podcast at Caveat in NYC, Dr. Tessa West, the author of Jerks at Work, conducts quizzes to see what kind of jerk you are and what kind of jerk most-easily persuades you in the workplace. You will also learn how to counteract the behaviors of people who make work suck more than it should.

West is a leading expert on interpersonal interaction and communication and will explain how to make work suck less as we return to our offices and figure out how to balance working remotely with working in-person after a year of re-imagining what work even means. West’s new book is an exploration of all the psychological research into how and why gaslighters, bulldozers, neglectors, micromanagers and more do their thing in our workplaces and how to use what we know from decades of psychological research to counteract their Machiavellian machinations.
