The 10 People Who Suck, published in 2007, is a self-help business book written by Ryan Powers and Michael Wissot. The book lists the ten most problematic office personalities and suggests a variety of conflict resolution techniques to deal with these individuals. Powers and Wissot advocate for a technique called "corporate triangulation," a spin-off concept from former White House adviser Dick Morris, who used triangulation during Bill Clinton's presidency. Powers and Wissot write, "The art of successful triangulation is reaching a solution that benefits both you and your alleged opponent(s) without compromising your principles."
The book has received notable praise in early reviews from top political leaders, CEOs, executives, business school professors and the business media.
