 THE FATHER FACTOR: How Your Father's Legacy Impacts Your Career Author: Poulter, Ph.D., Stephen B. Review Date: JUNE 09, 2006 Publisher:Prometheus Books Price (paperback): $18 Publication Date: May 2006 ISBN (paperback): 1591024102 Classification: BUSINESS AND PERSONAL FINANCE Experienced clinical psychologist Poulter explores the little-understood topic of adult father-son and father-daughter relationships in this fascinating and insightful book. Poulter asks readers to identify what "type" of parenting style your father exhibited growing up-the Superachiever Father, the Time Bomb Father, the Passive Father, the Absent Father or the Compassionate/Mentor Father. Since we often unconsciously mimic -- or react against -- our dynamic with our fathers in our relationships with our bosses and subordinates at work, close examination of these formative patterns can provide crucial insights into our own behavior. By understanding the father -- daughter or father -- son relationship, we can understand the legacy -- good or bad -- we have inherited and harness this knowledge to achieve positive changes in our careers. After helping readers identify the impact their fathers have had on their personalities, Poulter then demonstrates how to gain a competitive edge at work by emphasizing the strengths of our personal style and accessing the keys to personal success and professional empowerment. A unique book that holds both useful psychological insights as well as eminently practical advice on building healthy relationships, developing your career and achieving job satisfaction.
