Advancing Your Career in a Toxic Work Environment

Do you dread Sunday nights?

Does someone take credit for your work?

Does the atmosphere at your job leave you drained, anxious, and doubting yourself?

You’re not imagining it, and it’s not your fault.

Advancing Yourself in a Toxic Environment is a warm, practical audiobook for people stuck in difficult workplaces. Through the story of Maya, a marketing coordinator whose manager keeps presenting her ideas as his own, you’ll learn what “toxic” really means, what it’s costing you, and what you can do about it, one clear step at a time.

You won’t be told to “just think positive.” You’ll get honest, usable tools you can start this week, including the exact words to say in tough moments.
