In Bullying Bosses A Survivor's Guide…the main message? If you are being bullied you will most likely not be believed, and you will need to prove it beyond a shadow of a doubt. Mueller acts as an ‘advocate’ for the abused, quickly arming them with the tools they need to defend themselves, and if push comes to shove, prove their case.
Mueller draws on his legal experience in counseling thousands of clients, to transform employees from vulnerable ‘Targets’, into confident ‘Workplace Warriors’. The book unfolds in a series of vivid anecdotes from bullied employees that aptly illustrate the many obstacles they face…
For anyone bedeviled by a bully, this will be a very useful guide on how-to-fight-back and come out ahead. One of the most valuable tools Mueller shares with the reader is the Incident Report form (downloadable at his site). Targets are instructed to methodically record and categorize the abuse on it…the process of documenting the abuse is critical to understanding it, spotting patterns, and devising methods to combat it. Like Sergeant Joe Friday from Dragnet, it asks for “Just the facts, Ma’am”…

This “survivor guide” is the result of many years of research, advocacy and exploration by Mueller of scenarios targets face when subject to attacks by bullying bosses.
Previous books have explored the concept of workplace bullying, …however none have prepared the target for winning the battle with the bullying boss like “Bullying Bosses”. The detail in this book is so good, that I am reminded of General Norman Schwarzkopf’s preparations for the (first) Gulf War.
This book …is the best in its category and likely to be for sometime to come…For those of you who are not or have not been targets of the bullying bosses, purchase it anyway, for as the Romans said, “Praemontius praemunitus”, to be forewarned is to be forearmed.

Thrilling book (and I use the word "thrilling" judiciously)...It is rare that a book of reference and self-help should read like an edge-of-the-seat John Grisham thriller. But this significant contribution to the study of bullying in the workplace often does.
I recommend the book to anyone who has ever been involved in on-the-job harassment, stalking, and bullying…A gem.

“Malignant Self Love - Narcissism Revisited"
Knowledge is power and this book provides just that…Part I provides an excellent summary of international knowledge on Workplace Bullying and additional information gleaned from Robert’s practice working with Targets and organizations. He cleverly uses a descriptor, the ‘Ring of Fire’ to describe how isolated Targets can become. Robert’s depiction, of how the diverse facets of organizations work together to attack a high performer and bring him/her down, is very real.
Part II is a lifeline for Targets. It describes how to beat the Workplace Bully at his or her own game and become a Workplace Warrior. Robert describes the knowledge, skills and abilities a Target needs in order to take on a Workplace Bully. ‘Bullying Bosses’ describes ways of managing these situations from a position of strength. The book gives action plans and outcomes to strive for.
This book is a necessary read for senior managers and human resources professionals who truly wish to prevent Workplace Bullying.

“Workplace Bullying, The Costly Business Secret”
The author integrates positive attributes for employee survival into a proactive model of “Workplace Warrior” Mueller asserts the acceptance and use of his model can strengthen anti-bullying employee behavior, as well as limit demoralizing effects of victimization. I highly recommend this book to anyone experiencing bullying behavior and/or anyone who seeks to help empower workers in the attainment of safer and healthier workplace environments.

Bullying Bosses A Survivor Guide eBook Robert Mueller JD Sam Vankin Andrea Needham Reviews
It is rare that a book of reference and self-help should read like an edge-of-the-seat John Grisham thriller. But this significant contribution to the study of bullying in the workplace often does. Robert Mueller, in his own words, is a "former attorney who represented a couple thousand employees suffering adverse employer actions, many involving bullying." He sure introduces the drama of the courtroom and the rudiments of the adversarial system into the 300 pages of his survivor's guide.
The author calls on managers to become aware of the dynamics that turn many workplaces into simmering stealth infernos. Employees should protect employers from bullies. Mueller leverages court cases and case histories into a cogent and methodological analysis of bullying tactics and strategies. Parallelly, he weaves a tapestry of legal, psychological, social, and cultural dimensions as he analyses the victim's mentality and reactions. Strewn among the pages of this rich presentation are highlighted tips and quotes.
Mueller's message is simple targets of bullying have to face down their tormentors. They have to become "workplace warriors" with "shields and swords". Easier said than done - but, still, can be done, argues the author. The target has to discover and groom potential supporters, build a case against the bullying boss, collect potent data and identify patterns of misbehavior, craft a plan, and implement it. It's all about empowerment by regaining control over situations that frequently and falsely look hopeless. The author takes the victim by the hand and convincingly shows him or her how to do it.
I recommend the book to anyone who has ever been involved in on-the-job harassment, stalking, and bullying because it is both deep and practical, accurate but never arcane, eye opening and thought provoking and challenging - but never loses its empathy and compassion for the victims of this widespread and under-reported phenomenon. A gem. Sam Vaknin, author of 'Malignant Self Love - Narcissism Revisited'
This is a book for nearly everyone. The topics covered can help to identify behaviors you may see everyday. Very helpful, and often right on target with patterns and ways in which to work successfully.
VERY helpful. You should read all the way thru and not just skim.
Usually when I write a review it is because a LOVED a book and want others to experience the same pleasure in a well-spoken and thoughtful author. I empathize with and wish the very best to anyone struggling with workplace problems. I therefore urge you NOT to put your faith in this deeply flawed treatise.
Far from offering meaningful help and support, Mr. Mueller's book promotes self-destructive behavior that assures the escalation of workplace strife. I read this book from cover to cover, searching for ANY redeeming quality. I never found it.
In the name of "getting even" the author carefully counsels the reader to become the workplace equivalent of a suicidal bomber. Encouraging MUTUAL ASSURED DESTRUCTION seems to be the goal of Mr. Mueller, who counsels employees to treat every workplace dispute as a struggle to the death. The tragedy is that victims of workplace bullies who turn to this book for help are doomed to be victimized again.
I gave "Bullying Bosses" the lowest score allowed. If I could have rated it "negative five stars" I would have, because the reader who takes this book seriously will end up WORSE off than if he or she had never encountered Mr. Mueller. Indeed, in Mr. Mueller's world there are no winners.
By counseling victims to connive and plot to achieve their moment of (vengeful) "pleasure," Mr. Mueller surely condemns them to a lifetime of regrets.
For more life-affirming advice on this subject, I suggest Roy Lubit's "Coping with Toxic Managers, Subordinates and other Difficult People," which focuses on using emotional intelligence to survive and thrive in the workplace. I also heartily recommend "Designed for Success-the Ten Commandments of Women in the Workplace" by Dondi Scumaci. Both books contain workable approaches to dealing with and overcoming difficult supervisors and coworkers.
Low and behold the bully boss I worked under was reprimanded and removed. Then about 3 yrs later she was reassigned back to the clinic. However her demeanor had changed. In fact she had a bullying book of sorts on her shelf. I was satisfied.
I work with those on a daily basis who are being bullied at work. Until now, I have not had much of a plan to help them. I found this book a great help in beginning to outline what one needs to do to survive a bully boss. I would love to see an outline summary of the steps to take when one is in this situation because, frankly, by the time an employee starts looking for help he is in way deep and needs some instant information to start taking action while reading the rest of the book
Working with a Bullying Boss is a fairly traumatizing experience. This book will help you identify a hostile work place dominated by a bully and will provide you coping strategies. There is not necessarily anything here that you couldn't find elsewhere, but it's great for learning to cope and survive a hostile workplace, at least long enough until you can find a new workplace...
