This book would have appeal outside of Europe and the US. Young people need a book that reminds them of the importance of soft skills.
You often don’t know what makes you special or how to dissect the work environment. This book reminds people of the power within; to trust in your abilities. It helps you to be more assertive.
The anecdotes were the best part. It showed that the author had these actual experiences.
The writing style also is very accessible and the vocabulary easy to understand.
The book presents very authentic and real advice. It’s not just a collection of ridiculous ‘How To’s’ that aren’t really performable in the real work world and climate of a office environment.
The methods presented in the book also are very versatile in the sense that from the cashier, to the banker in a global company, and to the lawyer in a big law firm, the tips and tricks, as well as, or even more importantly, the book’s philosophy, can be useful to everyone trying to become more assertive in standing up for themselves.
The book fulfills its purpose very well and I love the clear concept. It really made for an easy and enjoyable read.
