Reviews
Copyright 1998 Reed Business Information, Inc.
Highly readable and practical advice from this well-known syndicated columnist who gets many of his tales of the disenchanted from his popular web site (www.workingwounded.com).
Copyright 1999 Reed Business Information, Inc.
With some practice and sharp editing, Rosner could be considered the prose version of Scott Adams' "Dilbert" cartoon. He is irreverent, truthful, witty, and, above all, pulls no punches in outlining options in this strange new world of work. How does he keep a reader's attention since, after all, he dwells on the same old topics of hiring, firing, and entrepreneuring, among others? Easily . . . through a combination of answered e-mail letters to his Web site, statistics, cartoons (non-" Dilbert"), actual "working wounded" stories, and quotes to keep the reader thinking. How to manage one's boss? In short, tailor one's interactions to meet the boss' needs. On the issue of assuming a manager's role, President Ike is quoted: "You do not lead by hitting people over the head--that's assault, not leadership." About succeeding in sales, he cites the 10-3-1 rule: 10 contacts, 3 presentations, 1 sale. Informative and interesting. Barbara Jacobs
