If you’ve read the Introduction to the Dark Side, you know that you need to pay attention to the undercurrents which operate in every company.

The Employee Stream has two audiences:

• Workers who are individual contributors and do not have any one reporting to them
• Managers who are employees of their bosses, and are subject to the same stresses of an employee as any other. Managers have a further challenge to manage  undercurrents in their supervisory role and that will be dealt with in the Managers Stream (next page).

The Employee Stream’s five categories

• Bringing Yourself to Work
• The Dark Side
• Groupthink
• Lying
• Power
• The Need for Harmony

Choose whichever stream is most applicable to your situation. Each category’s posts will give you examples of predicaments you can find yourself in and how to resolve them in your favor.
