Toxic People (PDF)

Praise For Toxic People

"From corporate America to the smallest business owner, this
book should be mandatory reading because it provides toxic relief
that will put money in your pocket and calm in your personality. A
dose of this reading would enhance the success of business school
students and smooth out a few bumps in a rocky marriage."

--Richard L. Labrum, Vice President, Wealth Management,
Smith Barney

"If you're just sick to death of those people who zap the energy
right out of you, Marsha has the cure! In no-nonsense terms, she
gives us the prescription for dealing with toxic people. She mixes
in the right dosage of personal experience, humor, and practical
advice to create a compelling message that is highly relevant in
our personal and professional lives. I highly recommend this book
to everyone interested in cleaning up toxic behaviors!"

--John Ryan, Vice President, American Express

"Marsha Petrie Sue is the Muhammad Ali of communicators. She can
dance and look pretty, and she uses the entire ring, but she knows
how and when to land a knockout punch. If you have bad
relationships, you'll learn why. This is charm school with live
ammunition!"

--David Rawles, founder and President, Career
Solutions, Inc.

"Marsha Petrie Sue's 'take the bull by the horns' approach to
self-realization and, if so chosen, self-improvement, is the
antidote to today's wimpy leadership malaise. She takes readers by
their collars, looks them straight in the eyes, and tells them in
no uncertain terms that their key to both personal and professional
happiness is attainable only through critical self-evaluation and
the will to transcend their current situations."

--Randy O'Neill, Senior Vice President, Lancer
Insurance Company

"She has done it again! She gives us permission to 'sack the
toxic people' who suck out our energy. Take Marsha's ticket to
freedom: give yourself permission to send the toxic people on their
not-so-merry way!"

--Dr. Geoff Haw, Consultant, Sagacity Services,
Australia

"Marsha always finds a way to deliver the most difficult messages
in a humorous way (this book is one example). You will be able to
apply this book in everyday life and anywhere you encounter
people!"

--Tina Aguirre, Senior IT Manager, oil and energy
company
