You're stressed, stuck, and running on empty. Some mornings, you can't bring yourself to open your laptop. And you find yourself wondering: ‘What is wrong with me?’
Nothing. It’s not you. It’s your workplace.
In My Workplace Is Killing Me!, organizational psychologist Dr. Michelle Penelope King reveals how modern work doesn’t just drain us, they erode our core human needs. Blending her latest cutting-edge research on toxic workplaces, Dr. King shows how the loss of agency—whether caused by bad managers, challenging colleagues, burnout, boring jobs, overwork, or algorithm-driven productivity demands—undermines motivation, engagement, and well-being.

This book moves from awareness to action. You’ll learn to:
This book provides a step-by-step framework to survive technological acceleration without losing your mind. Bad bosses, challenging colleagues, and addictive AI are here to stay—but losing yourself at work is optional.
