The power struggle is about to shift…
Is Your Boss Driving
You Crazy?
Here's to getting on equal footing with your boss…
Surveys show that the #1 reason people leave their job is a bad boss.
Dear Frustrated Employee,
My name is Tony Deblauwe and like you, I have had my share of bad bosses. As a Human Resources professional and certified coach, I have heard many stories from people suffering stress and frustration from the direction of a bad boss.
What’s your story? How long have you been unsuccessfully trying to change or simply work around a terrible boss? Wouldn’t it be great if you could learn how to turn things around and be on equal footing with your boss rather than remain a recipient of your boss’s dysfunctional behavior?
In my book, Tangling with Tyrants®: Managing the Balance of Power at Work, I will show you how to improve the relationship with your boss in order to regain your power and be truly successful at work.
You have a choiceYou can either continue to go nowhere trying one unsuccessful attempt to influence your boss after another, or you can develop a step-by-step communication plan to create the outcome you want.
It’s not too late to create change!
Consider how long as you have been suffering with a Tyrant boss...Think about all the weekends you gave up completing your boss’s work projects…Try to tabulate all the credit your boss has taken for your hard work…You need a real plan!
Avoid the cycle of hoping, coping, and compromise.
In my book, you will learn how negative self-talk and maintaining your focus on ineffective solutions and outcomes rob you of power. You will also learn how to replace your thinking with a solid, streamlined approach that gets results.
But you have to take the first step by deciding you want a lasting solution. Remember:
Most people fail to change behaviors
because they don’t have a plan.
They have tried all kinds of self-help strategies that
didn’t work because they had no action plan.
YOU are different!
Unlike other people, you have discovered the book that will provide you with the right information to develop an effective communicationplan that will help you approach your difficult boss more effectively.
Start now! I had a client who was at her wit’s end. Her boss was a huge micro-manager who constantly berated her work, made her work long hours, and even called her to complete a report while she was on vacation! She decided she had enough and, using the same techniques you will learn in my book, she took the initiative to approach her boss in a new way. With in a few days, her boss backed off.
She developed a meeting schedule and calendar that improved their communication and the quality of her projects but most importantly, she had the tools to restore her power and improve her job satisfaction. All this was achieved not by changing positions, workload, or even her boss; instead, she used a plan to create mutually beneficial outcomes.
She made a decisionand took the first step in order to collaborate with her boss and not act as an emotional recipient to her boss’s behavior.

But My Boss is Absolutely Horrible!
I know what you’re thinking. You’ve tried several times to interact differently with your boss, or you tired several “methods” or taken “advice” from friends or other sources that didn’t work. How is this book any different?
Changing your thinking and behaviors towards the situation with your boss does not happen overnight. We become emotionally accustomed to certain situations always being the same, and we soon stop believing that any change is possible.
You can’t succeed without a planthat puts all the right communication pieces into a format that is easy and natural for you to work with. My book puts all the pieces together – how you think about the situation with your boss and what a good communication process is. You will learn a new profile that puts your best foot forward and drives different results that will be long term, not fads or generic tips that may make your situation worse!
Employees Leave Bosses, NOT Companies
You can start changing your relationship with your boss today. It doesn’t matter if you worked with your bad boss 3 years or 3 days, you will learn what it takes to make an impact. Even if you don’t currently work for a bad boss but did in the past, you will gain the knowledge to deal effectively with any future Tyrants that may come along.

Time to Turn the Tables on Your Boss
Let’s face facts. Most people just accept bad boss or Tyrant behavior because they feel they have no choice. They sacrifice their values and their job satisfaction because:
“There’s no changing my boss.”
You have the opportunity to be the exception. You can break away from traditional thinking and create a new vision for yourself and the way you work with your boss.
Get ready to say goodbye to your old communication style. You will soon open up new doors – a new set of possibilities that come with an effective set of methods aimed at vastly improving your style and effectiveness. I remember being in your position, thinking I would never survive my Tyrant boss. I even thought I chose the wrong job or worse – the wrong profession!
I knew something had to change.
We have all been discouraged from time-to-time when we don’t get along with our boss for one reason or another. However, when faced with a Tyrant boss, your day-to-day life changes. You dread ever making a mistake, you fear for your job, and you become mentally and physically exhausted trying to get through your day without confronting him or her.
You Have the Power…You Can Do It!
Can you imagine:
Focusing on your job, not your boss’s behavior?
Using your personal power to influence your boss?
Commanding respect from your boss?
Restoring your job satisfaction?
A Florida State University study surveyed 700 people about bad boss behavior and here were some of the findings:
37% said their supervisor failed to give credit when due.27% said their supervisor made negative comments about them to other employee's or managers.24% said their supervisor invaded their privacy.
23% said their supervisor blames others to cover up mistakes or minimize embarrassment.
