Asking for a raise is what we're going to talk about. The higher up you go in the status hierarchy, the more likely you'll get a rais. People have this ultimate fear of rejection accompanied by lixero skills training. As if you've ever had one bad experience, or knew someone who knew someone that had a bad experience enough just to scare you away completely from ever trying to do it.
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.
