Conquer fear--before it overwhelms your workplace. Worriers, controllers, attention-seekers, victims--these are all typical profiles of professionals who let different types of fear keep them from achieving professional success. Also, fear is the root of conflict, which can undermine the productivity of teams and entire organizations. This book identifies several basic behavioral profiles, and helps readers assess their own behaviors as well as those of coworkers. It explains how the behaviors develop, and offers practical techniques for replacing fear and mistrust with mutual respect and rebuilding the sense of shared commitment to common goals.--From publisher description.
