Great Read as a HR Professional

I heard about this book a long time ago and I just got around to reading it. I should’ve read it a long long time ago. I am an HR professional. This was very eye-opening and surprising. What a high-quality read. I think anybody who wants to get into business or has been in business should read this and take it seriously even if you are a professional there’s a lot to learn here. I took copious notes and will consider this in my executive presence and my future job search.

Mindset Changer

This book is an AWESOME start to changing ones mindset about the workplace. It is certainly one that will challenge your thought process and teach you what you need to Successfully survive in any work environment.

Excellent book

Enjoyed listening and plan to incorporate in my career as I plan to move to the next level as a manager.
Narration is very good too!

I'm incompetent when it comes to corporate stuff

I'm an academic and an entrepreneur. I received a masters/bachelors with near 4.0 gpas and have run a successful start-up (not in the millions of revenue but good enough to survive and to sell for a profit), but I've been struggling with understanding corporations since i've graduated. This book has really helpful for someone like me!

I loved it so much, highly recommend. Maybe for people who are familiar with corporations and understand how they work, this may not be extremely helpful. But if you have ever wondered why things are the way they are in a corporation. I highly suggest reading this book I think you'll gain something out of it.

Wish I had this book at age 25

This should be assigned reading before starting your first corporate job. It may not save you from yourself and stupid mistakes, but maybe if you listen to it twice, it might sink in
