Product Description When we go to school, college or university we're taught all about all kinds of things, different subjects such as mathematics, English literature, history, geography, but who teaches you or tells you about what it's like to go to work? What happens and what should you expect? What should I do if I want to climb the corporate ladder? I think many of us go and start work fresh and naive and try to figure it out ourselves as we go along. This paperback is intended to tell you what the 'cynic' sees in the running of companies in the modern working environment and reflects my own observations from 20 years in the workforce, primarily spent in industry and also as a software consultant for several major software firms. I really wanted to address the issues that the glossy ideal images of the corporate world don't want to acknowledge exist, the types of things you'll never find in any textbook on Management in any Library but nevertheless have a major effect on us every day at work, which is a large part of most people's lives. I myself have tired to an extent of reading typically USA produced highly motivationally oriented views of the perfect world and how things ought to be. When I look at the Library shelves there's very little on how things really are in the 'typical' organisation. I actually feel that we as humans like to concern ourselves on how things should be in an optimistic sense. We all like happy stories and happy endings, nobody likes unhappy stories and unhappy endings, but in real life good does not always triumph. In the corporate world logic, efficiency, common sense are thought of as 'good', inefficiency, lack of common sense and corporate politics are though of as 'bad', but we as human eternal optimists by nature like to view the world and we like to hear that good, logic and efficiency prevails, when in real life, this is not always true despite all the glowing reports we read in the newspapers, the financial press and the Annual Reports. PS I'm Australia so the spellings in the book are standard Australian we tend to use a lot of letter 's' when your guys from the USA use 'z' From the Author Empty
