Nobody tells the tale of a man who decides to release his rage + Bridge the Gap will help you better communicate with your boss

A docile family man finds himself in a battle against a mob boss: In last year’s film Nobody, Bob Odenkirk played Hutch Mansell, a gentle, overlooked dad and husband who rarely pushes back against life. Mansell’s docile attitude continues until two petty thieves rob his house and he refuses to defend himself or his family — losing the respect of his wife and son. As his close ones pull away from him, the incident strikes a match to Mansell’s dormant rage and once it starts burning, it can’t be stopped. His sudden release of years of untapped rage soon put him in the line of fire from a Russian crime boss whom he upset. The film shows how Mansell goes from a “nobody” to a gun-rearing, fist-throwing adversary that even the mafia boss can’t bring down. You can find the film on OSN Streaming.

Have a boss you just can’t get the message across to? Bridge the Gap is written by Jennifer Edwards and Katie McCleary, who work as coaches to Fortune 500 companies and social enterprises. The book aims to help you advance your communication skills, and nurture your relationships at work where colleagues should be treated with understanding and respect. Every interaction at the workplace “has the power to improve or deteriorate a critical professional relationship,” they write. Bridge the Gap teaches readers how to ensure that these interactions help to connect and engage, as opposed to shutting people down or creating drama. It all depends on the tools and communication methods you decide to utilize in certain situations, with Edwards and McCleary putting together a guide on how to navigate work friendships, clashes, and management styles.
