If you take protecting your employers’ business/reputation seriously, you need to read “Snakes in Suits.” I’m not asking you to do this because I think there is a psychopath around every corner – it’s estimated that only 1% of the population are actual psychopaths. Like most union officials I’ve worked with, I inwardly groaned when a member tells me their boss was a ‘psychopath’ – because neither the member nor I are qualified to make such a statement. Worse saying their boss was a psychopath in a grievance meeting for the same reasons can damage the credibility of their case. However, many of the abusive behaviours are not exclusive to psychopaths. Psychopathy is on a spectrum – so reading this book could be critical to protecting your employer’s business.
