VILEST BOOK EVER, BUT SO APTLY TITLED!
Do you aspire to be the human equivalent of cancer? Do you lust after power, regardless of the consequences? Can you remain unaffected by the loathing of your coworkers? Are you completely unscrupulous? Well then, this is the book for you!
Why do many good people hate going to work? Perhaps it’s be because too many of their employer’s senior people are useless careerists. You know the type. They scoot up the corporate ladder by ass kissing, jargon spouting, positivity oozing, confidence projecting, fake-project spearheading, overdressing for success, shared interest feigning, phony smiling, blame-shifting, credit-stealing, etc. Good people will never get a fair shake where careerists reign.
These bottom feeders keep workplaces from ever being anything like a meritocracy. No matter how diligently and efficiently ordinary people work, and no matter how valuable their contribution actually is, the careerists will always be paid more than and promoted faster and higher. Careerists beat good people in the rat race as if they were standing still. By the time ordinary folk figure out the race is rigged, it’s too late.
This is the most repugnant garbage I’ve ever read. It will appeal to only to psychopaths/sociopaths and hard-core narcissists.
Read this book only if you want to understand how undeserving and egocentric people get ahead and keep companies and governments eternally corrupt and dysfunctional. But don’t expect to be able to use this advice without abandoning your integrity and selling your soul -- cheaply.
I’m going to spend the next three weeks washing my ears.

Great advice and strategies, but too many examples
Any additional comments?
This audio book was full of great advice and strategies for winning in the work place. It explains to you what works and what doesn't for getting promotions, but does this through the excessive use of example stories instead of just giving up facts and straight up advice. So you need to be able to read between the lines to get the most from the book.
To me it got tiresome listening to story after story, but it was worth it in the end for the immediate work place improvement I acquired.

Somewhat Cynical, but Realistic
Any additional comments?
Definitely a good book for people who wish to climb the corporate ladder. It has a narrow focus on corporate success, so don't look here if you want to start a business or learn about personal finance. Some of the pieces of advice seem to contradict each other, but if you're smart you can pick out the techniques that will work in your workplace.

If your career hasn't made sense, this book will.
If I'd have read/listened to this right out of college, I think I'd have found it offensive for the dim, cynical view it takes of management culture. However, the ensuing decade was so confusing to me professionally that I started looking for a coherent explanation for my stagnant career. I watched as people who didn't seem competent, or even completely literate, got ahead. The panacea of this came when I had a Shift Manager - whose job supposedly required math and writing tests - who had a fourth grade reading level, and never got past the math classes that were just called 'math'.
Prior to reading this, I thought I'd tried everything. I came into middle management as a passion player, and I was so eager to work my way up that I was willing to master whatever task I was given. I decided that I would do so much work that I would be indispensable, and my boss would have to recognize all of my work and promote me.
Having listened to this book, I now realize that my strategies were exactly wrong. The author has had a strong career, and while I'm still going through this book, much of what I have learned can be grilled down to a few rules:
1. Avoid coaching/conflict as much as possible, no matter how much of an opportunity you see. Try to pawn it off on some other poor sucker.
2. Don't try to make any big changes. Career ambition might be a good thing, but trying to make large scale improvements will just alienate people, and might not alter the course of your career.
3. Accept that your boss might not be able to tell the difference between good work and bad work, even if they have the same definitions as you do.
So, if you want a book that will tell you that meritocracy is real, and that people who work hard will get ahead, this book will disappoint you. However, if you've been suspecting that the old cliches about merit are wildly inaccurate, this book will explain the lunacy to you.

Brilliant. Must read for young professionals.
There is no room for conventional wisdom in Stealing the Corner Office. Reid delivers an articulate diagnosis of how corporate culture truly operates, crafts laugh-out-loud stories to get his points across, then hands his readers a razor sharp tactical plan that demands immediate action. Will be talking about this one for quite a while.

Stand-out book on getting ahead at work!
Would you consider the audio edition of Stealing the Corner Office to be better than the print version?
The delivery is quite humorous, so there is a positive from the audio version.
What did you like best about this story?
After listening to this book I realised I was already doing some of the things discussed, now I know why they make a difference. It's a definite thought provoker... I've already recommended it to a few choice colleagues... but not too many! :-)
What does Dana Hickox bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you had only read the book?
Yes the humour comes thru which makes it stand out more than the other business / self help books I've listened to.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Yes - and I did pretty much

Story
Most of us know we own too much stuff. We feel the weight and burden of our clutter, and we tire of cleaning and managing and organizing. While excess consumption leads to bigger houses, faster cars, fancier technology, and cluttered homes, it never brings happiness. Rather, it results in a desire for more. It redirects our greatest passions to things that can never fulfill, and it distracts us from the very lives we wish we were living. But it doesn't have to be this way.
