The idea of the play is that three souls find themselves in the afterlife—consisting of a single room with no doors or windows—and they are not only trapped in this place forever, but each one brings out the worst in the other. If you have ever been stuck in the middle seat on a long flight, you might have experienced something similar. Sartre discovered that relationships are central to a person's happiness to the extent that when they deteriorate, they can become actual hell. I have heard similar opinions over the years while working as a human resources manager in one of the most employee-centered organizations in the world. When people feel isolated, or that their rights are being infringed upon, or that they are frustrated at work, this feeling is usually related to those they work with: their boss, team members, colleagues, and even direct subordinates. As a result, I wrote this book revolving around a simple but powerful idea: at the core of what makes us happy and effective—in both our personal and professional lives—lies the quality of our relationships.
