Average Rating: 
Rating: - A nice easy read containing practical tips to boost your career
A good book with some very practical advise on how to succeed as a manager,but also how to deal with issues in everyday life. I think the managerial aspect of this book means it is more for those who already find themselves in lower management and want to move up the corporate ladder.
I appreciated the insight into life of the Author and the tips, quotes and "remember this" at the end of each chapter are well worth making note of.
Time will tell if it will get me a promotion ;-)

Rating: - Excellent Book - my secret little bible for job success
This book is the accumulation of common sense from a very accomplished businessman, Joel Weiss.
Essentially, this book is all the important advice they don't teach you in school. I graduated from Yale in 2003 --it was a great school, but they didn't teach me a jot about how to succeed in business. This book has become my little bible for doing the right thing on the job. Some advice is common sense, like 'show up on time.' But other things I never would have known, like 'ask to read their business ... Read More
