The fourth section provides tips for making a person result-oriented at the workplace, enabling him to realise his ambitions. It gives insights into behaviour that leads one on the path to success. The fifth part talks about achieving success in relationships and the last section provides some readings from international experts. The book is peppered with interesting quotes and catchy headlines, like ‘learning from Life’s University’, ‘Are you me-deep in misery?’ etc. This is a step-by-step guide to surviving and succeeding in the corporate world. A sequel to ‘The Winning Manager’, this dwells upon management theories as well as the realities of a corporate workplace, highlighting essentially what should be and what is. It tackles a gamut of areas: from power and politics at workplace to hiring and firing to the ethics and human values that one confronts in a corporate career. Managing people, taking people at face value, cooperation and networking and the challenge of change are some of the issues that a CEO is faced with. Dipping heavily into his experiences as a corporate executive, management consultant and teacher, the author used the technique of ‘fable’ to highlight various ‘concepts.’ — Chetna Keer Banerjee
