I first reached out to Bob Sutton in 2009 when I asked him to write a testimonial for my first book, BACK OFF!
Bob and I recently had a conversation about whether workplace bullying is intentional, how leaders and HR can talk to “bullies” about their behavior, how to make culture change, and of course my recently released Workplace Culture Makeover Masterclass.
Bob is a professor at Stanford University, and his New York Times Best Sellers include Good Boss, Bad Boss; and The No A–hole Rule. He just released a follow up, The A–hole Survival Guide, which I assume will also be a best seller.

If you need to make the business case for creating a better work environment, this re-released 2007 article by Bob will do the trick. (Since this 10-year old article is still totally relevant, it highlights just how little headway we’ve made in the building better work environments department. Yikes.)
Grab a cup of coffee and notepad, and enjoy the next 18 minutes! Bob is a pleasure to talk to and his sparkling personality sure shines through!
Sincerely,
Catherine
