Recommendation
Even when he’s not at his best, and he isn’t here, Tom Peters stands head-and-shoulders above other management gurus, particularly if you like your messages delivered straightforwardly with a good dose of exclamation points. Peters is all about simplicity and excitement, both in his language and in his message. His basic mantra never changes: the workplace is becoming ever more competitive, so you need to make yourself and your company stand out. Do this by viewing your work as a series of critical projects and injecting limitless enthusiasm into each one. In delivering his consistent message, Peters tosses out scores of common-sense lines that are so true that you just have to jot them down. You’ll find quite a few such keepers in this book, but you won’t find much of an overriding theme. Instead, Peters presents a string of 210 useful, fun, pithy observations that flow together loosely, all to imbue you with a dose of Pow! Now! Wow! If you want to get going, getAbstract.com recommends this motivational booster.
