Conference Room Wars is The Phoenix Project meets the popular comedy series The Office, without the hilarity.

When Noel Rennick joined the St Louis office of Cramdler Innovative Government Solutions (CIGS) he expected to be part of a professional organization, dedicated to meeting the client's expectations. Instead, he found dysfunction, chaos, and a toxic organizational environment.

Noel is determined to apply everything he learned in graduate school and his summer internships in Chicago to change the paradigm and make the office a success. He needs to navigate his apathetic office manager and a coworker that breeds toxicity at every turn. Soon the conference room turns into a daily battleground, and a tragic event threatens to shatter the office into pieces.

Before he knew it, Noel was the glue that holds the office together. Along the way he forms relationships that will last a lifetime and become the foundation for the strength needed to win the war waging in the office.

Will Noel be able to drive the dysfunction and toxicity from the office and make Cramdler a workplace the employees are proud of?

Readers will not only learn how to improve their own organizations, but they will never view organizational culture and emotional intelligence the same way again.
