Whoa, My Boss is Naked is an irreverent yet savvy career guide for the generation of twenty-somethings that grew up holding remote controls. Who knew that you could learn so much about work from American Idol, Borat, and The Bachelor?

Whoa, My Boss is Naked! shows readers how they can land jobs and get ahead without losing their identities and becoming sellout Corporate Tools. It leads young professionals through every critical stage of the entry-level experience, from post-graduate anxiety and confusion to smart interview preparation, and insider intelligence on how to navigate office politics.

The book is full of examples, anecdotes, and stories pulled from the last twenty years of pop culture - from movies like Anchorman and Mean Girls, TV shows like Survivor and Project Runway, and from musicians like Gwen Stefani, Metalica, and Hanson (don’t worry, you’ll understand that last one when you get there).

Who says business books have to be boring?
