Snakes in Suits: When Psychopaths Go to Work by Paul Babiak
3.0
This one was a bit repetitive and contradictory. It presented a lot of information useful for identifying a psychopath in the workplace and how to deal with them, but continually followed up with, "You're not qualified to identify a psycopath and you probably shouldn't deal with them."
Welp, I'm going to just totally ignore that and throw out the words Erin Stein. Ahem.
It's primarily useful from a managerial standpoint, detailing methods for spotting psychopathic behaviors in interviews and preventing them from entering the company in the first place. How to properly get rid of them is the same way you safely let go of any other problem employee.
For the less in charge sort of folks, it's a bit more grim. You mustn't prove useful to the psychopath, and you mustn't pose a threat. Your best chance is to escape their notice entirely. And if you've fallen under their radar, all you can do is either forward your boss this book or find another job lol. Either way, they're probably going to annihilate you.
