Description

Tessa West (@tessawestnyu) is a social psychology professor at New York University and the author of Jerks at Work: Toxic Coworkers and What to Do About Them.
What We Discuss with Tessa West:

The seven types of jerks at work: the kiss up/kick down, the credit stealer, the bulldozer, the free rider, the micromanager, the neglectful boss, and the gaslighter.
Why prioritizing conflict management as a skill is crucial for identifying and coexisting with jerks at work.
How to stop the jerks at work from taking credit for all of your good ideas.
Have mercy: jerks at work aren't necessarily villains -- their poor patterns hurt them just as much as they hurt everyone else.
What we can do to ensure that we're not the jerks at work.
And much more...
