You will find grounded perspective and practical strategies for staying organised without living in constant panic.
It also offers reassurance and aims to support a stronger sense of confidence and self-respect, to help stop your job getting under your skin. So whether you choose to stay in the role, leave, or simply want to stop taking the job so personally, this book will help you feel clearer and steadier.
Because most of the time, the problem isn't you.
