Shifting the Monkey: The Art of Protecting Good from Liars, Criers, and Other Slackers by Todd Whitaker

4.0

This book showed me ways in which I take on the responsibilities (aka monkeys) of others in both my personal and professional lives. It gives concrete methods to keep this from happening and shifting those monkeys to the backs of their "rightful owners." It was also helpful in helping me to identify ways to help my students keep their own monkeys instead of me taking on their responsibilities for them.
