ARE YOU SICK AND TIRED OF A TOXIC WORKPLACE?
From Main Street to Wall Street, toxic work cultures are scaring off their best talent, killing much-needed innovation, and crippling creative solutions-all of which wreaks havoc on the bottom line. Meanwhile, workers everywhere feel trapped in the hostility and backstabbing of today's work environment.

In this pioneering book, creativity consultant Dustin Staiger reveals blame as the underlying cause preventing us from doing profoundly innovative work. Blame cannot simply be ignored. It has to be dealt with. But we must handle it with grace (literally) to detox our individual habits and our group culture. Eliminating toxicity empowers us to rehabilitate our team's innate talent, rescue valuable contributions, and resuscitate our potential for success.

Throughout Blame This Book, you'll discover contrarian wisdom that flies in the face of today's outdated management practices.
