Book Description
In a world where business ethics have taken a back seat to the pursuit of wealth and power and movements like political correctness have muzzled the fair exchange of ideas, is it any wonder that the average employee views the workplace with suspicion and consequently checks their loyalties at the office door? Dishonesty has crept into the workplace and undermined organizational performance. Navigating this environment is a difficult task for employees and managers alike. Swapping Lies! takes the issue of deception in the workplace head on. In a powerful blend of academic research, common sense business advice, and home spun tales, the author presents a case for change. In doing so, he offers more than 80 "Tips" designed to help the reader navigate today's complex work environment. In a refreshing change in presentation and style this author provides a third dimension in his footnotes. In addition to a comprehensive list of references, the author uses the footnote as a running commentary on the main text. Much like an alter ego, each footnote adds a deeper insight to both the subject at hand and the author himself. All in all, Swapping Lies! is a real world view of today's organization and a no-nonsense approach to effective organizational management.

Monique Alexander has it all: looks, intelligence, a successful career as a high school English teacher, and an attractive husband who serves as a police officer. But unfortunately for their marriage, her husband spends as much time playing in the streets as he does protecting them. Monique wants nothing more than the happily-ever-after fantasy with a faithful husband. Despite her husband's betrayals, she clings to the illusion of a good marriage. That illusion is shaken by the arrival of a mysterious package that is addressed to her husband. Driven mad by curiosity, suspicion, and experience, she lets her emotions get the best of her. If infidelity is so justifiable for the gander, she reasons, why shouldn't the goose have fun too? Enraged, she seeks out an old flame to have her carnal, primal revenge. In her wildest dreams, she couldn't have imagined that Damon would leave her, but he does. Can their marriage recover from so much betrayal? Or will Monique pursue the life of happiness in another man's arms?
