Tien Tzuo and Gabe Weisert. The Rise and Fall of the Great Powers. Aug 20, CoolBreeze rated it really liked it. I can't believe I read a book about corporate ladder climbing, and even more so, I can't believe I actually liked it! And mostly because it's not so much about corporate ladder climbing per se, and much more about getting your act together, becoming more professional, and how to make your way alongside co-workers, bosses, customers patients etc.

This book focuses on looking the part, connecting well with others, and being more valuable to the team. All of which has broad appl Yikes! All of which has broad applications whatever your field. I'm not interested in the corporate life, me, personally. But this book was still well worth reading.

The one key point that clicked with me, was the fact that hard work rarely pays off. Which is something I've learned through experience.

Hard work is often unnoticed, and exploited. Instead, bosses and customers, and coworkers for that matter, really need you to add value to the organization. And sometimes that involves not working hard at all. Dec 20, Dave Bolton rated it it was amazing.

I have already recommended this book to several other people, which I realize is not something I usually do with business books. Many other career guides have such general, non specific information, that is never clear who might be interested or benefit from them.

This book stands in stark contrast, as all the major lessons and the guidance outlined is definitely applicable to anyone who wants a successful career. Jun 19, Karla rated it it was amazing. My partner and I read this book through flights, lunches, traffic, coffee shops, waiting for appointments - literally just anywhere for weeks. Every single page required for us to stop, discuss the topic and then a whole process of reprogramming ourselves began. It's a book about action.

I wish this book had been written years ago! It explained so many things I had noticed about my managers and bosses, and coworkers who were eventually promoted to that level.

Very simple to read and jam-packed with earnest, all-encompassing advice that works.
