If you’ve ever had a work problem, where do you turn for help? Maybe you had a dispute with a coworker, or your boss isn’t giving you the feedback you need? My favorite resource for workplace advice is Ask a Manager, a work advice blog written by Alison Green. Ask a Manager is a great resource for anyone engaging in a professional life, whether you’re job hunting and trying to crack the hiring process, or if you are a boss needing advice on how to manage a tricky subordinate. In addition to thoughtful, helpful advice, you will also see plenty of fascinating workplace horror stories!
I’ve gathered a few of my favorite posts below:
