Learn to overcome your difficulties with a boss who is uninterested in your concerns, or resistant to giving needed support. Or discover how to win the cooperation of senior managers who are hard to reach, and hard to sell on your ideas, products, or services.

* Offers practical advice about how to turn your relationship with your boss into a partnership in which both parties benefit
* Explains what powerful people care about
* Shows how to overcome power gaps by developing more partner-like relationships
Learn what a great partnership with your boss can do for your career--and your mental health!
