It is  a practical yet thought provoking set of &#8220;secrets&#8221; that we can all use. I am  tempted to hand it to any employee who feels ineffectual or any manager who is  struggling or for that matter any leader wondering about the culture they want  to drive in their company. Carl Dierschow has created something usable without  all the fluff that often goes with these &#8220;how to&#8221; books. Read it, use it, it  works!<br \/>\n&#8212; Trudy Haines, Vice-President of Human Resources in a  Fortune 50 company.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>For anyone who feels overwhelmed by corporate life, here is a great little  book with lots of practical tips and case studies on how to get more from your  work, to discover yourself, and to find greater personal fulfillment.\u00a0 The  writer works for a large global company, which, like many others, has undergone  significant change in the last few years.\u00a0 In simple coaching style, he  takes the reader through the many facets of work, its value to both employee and  employer, and the ways in which conflict arises and can be resolved.\u00a0 For  me, the central message is that the reader should take responsibility for  getting the most out of work, and for looking after himself.<br \/>\n&#8211;John, Coach in the UK<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>This book is practically the only reason I&#8217;ve stayed in my current position  with a national insurance company and been able to improve my performance from  barely meeting expectations to far exceeding them since October when I first  read <em>Mondays Stink<\/em>.\u00a0 My first impression of the\u00a0book was that it  gave me the ability to tolerate my job.\u00a0 I found myself referring to it as  a resource, hung a few of the bookmarks around my cubicle and noticed people  reading them, including my boss.\u00a0 The one that really hits people is the  one about how I should surround myself with people who appreciate me (not a  quote but that&#8217;s the idea I got from it).\u00a0 Now I think that message to the  readers who stop by my desk actually changes their approach to me and we are all  happier.\u00a0 Imagine if they had read the whole book. I would really like more  book marks so if my company of several hundred employees don&#8217;t read the book,  they will at least get the message by reading excerpts.\u00a0\u00a0If you sell  those\u00a0separately, I would like to buy more.\u00a0 They could become my\u00a0own  motivational posters for my benefit and visitors&#8230;..Thanks.<br \/>\n&#8212; Martha Sullivan, Medical Insurance Claims Processor<br \/>\nPelham, Alabama<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>&#8220;Carl Dierschow&#8217;s book, &#8216;Mondays Stink!&#8217; is a must-read for those who need to  develop or strengthen their office relationships to establish trust and support  with those in positions of influence and also to improve their chances at  keeping their job and moving up the ladder of success.
