Negative Behavior in Corporate America - A Book Review

Negativity is everywhere in the workforce, especially as we emerge from this latest global economic financial meltdown and recession. Of course, too much negativity in the work place can cause inefficiencies, loss of productivity, and a downward spiraling with regards to profits. If this is something that concerns you, as much as it concerns me as a shareholder of many large corporations, then I'd like to recommend a very good book to you. This is a book that I actually own, and the name of the book is;"Corporate Negaholic - How to Deal Successfully with Negative Colleagues, Managers, and Corporations" by Cherie Carter Scott, 1991.The author suggests that "negaholics" are like a cancer in corporations and that they can become a pandemic if they are not stopped. Much of this is part of the "blame game" that goes on due to corporate ladder climbing. The book talks about how to spot problem people, and problem departments within business units. That explains how to deal with the
issues prior to them getting out of control. It also explains how to manage negative employees and how too much ladder climbing competition from folks on the same team can cause issues.The author also explains what to do when one large Corporation merges with another large Corporation which has negative employees, who are not happy with the merger, and are literally out to sabotage the company. The author also expresses 10 characteristics and signs of a dysfunctional Corporation. And lastly, how to know if you are a negative person and part of the problem; and if so how to change yourself, help your career, your colleagues, and your company succeed in the marketplace.This is a great book, and I've enjoyed reading it very much. Perhaps, you will please consider this and add it to your business library as well. Think on it.
