Good Boss, Bad Boss On New York Times Bestseller List

We're Number 9! That is, Good Boss, Bad Boss is #9 on The New York Times "Advice, How-To, and Miscellaneous" list, which will be published on Sunday, September 26th.  Don't ask me why they release this so far in advance, I don't understand it — indeed, even after five books, I remain bewildered by the publishing industry. I have a zillion people to thank, but for this post, I will stick to my wife, Marina Park, to whom the book is dedicated to; Marina was not only was enormously supportive while I wrote it, she also taught me much about being a boss because while I mostly just study and write about the craft, she has been practicing it for a long time.  In addition, I was pleased to learn that the new paperback of The No Asshole Rule is #15 on the "extended" paperback bestseller list.  "Extended" means they only list the top 10 in the newspaper, but add five more online and in the pdfs they send around.  Here is the hardcover list.. sorry it is a little awkward looking, but I am not great at this cropping thing!

    Well deserved, Bob. We’ve known for what seems like forever that “the truth will set you free.” Who knew it would also sell books? This is hopeful news for all of us.

    I’m not surprised. Based on the challenge of finding it in the Silicon Valley bookstores. I got one of 3 left on the new release table at the Borders in Santana Row last night. Many Borders and B&N are showing as out of stock.

    Congrats Bob. Even though I sometimes have to grit my teeth when I read your blog as it can bring up traumatic memories, I know you are trying to help promote better workplaces. And nice that you thank your wife here(did you mean to write “me wife”, and may I suggest, “to whom the book is dedicated”?).
