Later I found out that there are some publications on this phenomenon by Bob Sutton (http://bobsutton.typepad.com/, professor at Stanford by chance). He calls those ball-busters "assholes" and even has written a book about them: http://www.amazon.com/Asshole-Rule-Civilized-Workplace-Surviving/dp/0446526568/ There are even some very entertaining resources at Stanford Educators Corner: http://edcorner.stanford.edu/authorMaterialInfo.html?author=55 You see: we're not alone ;) Best regards, Volker Hi Mark,
