First and foremost, the book makes for highly enjoyable reading. Not only is it informative, but it is also written in a vivid style that makes you want to read on. The personal anecdotes, and most importantly, the humour, make it easy and fun to read. (The conversation between Caesar and his quartermaster had me rolling on the floor laughing. Also the invented names and the author\u2019s conversation with the baloney sandwich).<\/p>
The author\u2019s wealth of experience is impressive!\u2026I quickly realized this is invaluable advice for anyone working in any workplace – be that the private or the public sector. Some of the Calhoun-Senghor Rules were eye-opening; and I think the author is right to cite, \u201cTalent alone is not enough,\u201d on the back of the book, as the Nr.1 motto of the book. The hands-on advice regarding elevator pitches and job applications, complete with the appendices, will be extremely helpful for anyone applying for a job.<\/p>
The book has a very clear overall structure, and the structure of the individual chapters is also clear. I found the numbered lists\/bullet point lists very helpful. I also appreciated the illustrator\u00b4s drawings at the end of each chapter, serving as a \u2018visual summary\u2019 of each rule\/chapter.<\/p>
The vivid, personal and conversational style of the book made it very enjoyable to read.<\/p>
The book was an unexpectedly enriching read\u2026.There was a wealth of content in it that I can use for my own personal and professional growth and I\u00b4m extremely grateful to have the opportunity to read it! I\u00b4ve taken quite a few notes for myself while reading the Calhoun-Senghor Rules and I\u00b4d love to have the book.<\/p>
Thank you again for allowing me to read your book and I look forward to holding it in my hands as a real book!<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
