The title “Don’t Quite Yet! really caught my eye. I knew this was a book I wanted to read and I wasn't disappointed. Time is an issue so I was looking for a book that would be a quick read, got to the point of an issue, and included strategies on how to deal with situations. Debbra Anne succeeded my expectations in this book.Don’t Quit Yet! has a wealth of information. Each chapter has a specific focus with real life examples, a quote from a book or article that is specific to the chapters’ focus and a summary of ‘Three Tips’ at the end of each chapter.There were times I found myself reflecting on my own behaviors and realizing I too needed to make some changes. This book is thought provoking and includes helpful suggestions to maintaining a healthy workplace environment. Thank you Debbra Anne!
This book had me at hello! I loved the title - it is so appropriate to think we don't have any options except to quit when we are in a negative work environment. The book is an easy read and the author does a good job summarizing key points at the end of each chapter. Very action-oriented!
In “Don’t Quit Yet,” author Debbra Anne skillfully nails the problems in working with others in the workplace. She provides meaningful stories describing sticky workplace issues like gossiping, harassment, bullying, just plain mean behavior, and more, and addresses each issue with practical suggestions for resolution. She even appropriately addresses the possibility that the perpetrator of some situations might be the reader. I particularly liked the chapter on email bloopers, and found many useful ideas. Each chapter ends with a summary of easy to use and helpful tips. Throughout the book, Debbra Anne provides valuable recommendations to reach the end goal as she describes it: “Developing Tenacity, Humor, and Grace in the workplace.” This book is a helpful tool for maintaining sanity, stability, and etiquette in the workplace.
This book speaks directly to anyone who struggles with co-worker friction - aka just about everyone at some point in time! Debbra is insightful, refreshingly humorous, and downright honest about the struggles of working with those who can be difficult co-workers in the office. She also digs into the self realization that sometimes we are the trouble makers without realizing it! A lot of the time we lay blame on others because it's easier than looking at ourselves. Many will argue that the hardest part of office life is learning how to work with your co-workers - not only effectively, but agreeably. Debbra gives effective tips and methods to combat workplace conflict, making this book is a must-read for every worker, no matter the industry!
