Ever wondered how, despite your hardest efforts in the office, nothing ever seems to get done The answer is right here in your hands. Your co-workers, managers, employees and even business partners may be better versed in the eleven principles contained in this book than you might imagine. Arm yourself, and know your enemy. With the subtitle: The Corporate Saboteurs Handbook, summing up its raison d'etre, this very clever, very funny and very sharp little book cuts brilliantly to the chase, attacking the very heart of business paralysis by analysis and the mind numbing techno-speak world of mission statements, team building and expensive consultants. Want to really understand how to get things done and achieve real results when everything around you seems to conspire against it Read this little gem and try not to laugh out loud in the office - after all, you don't want them to know you're on to them. An invaluable tool for anyone with a sense of humour and a sharp mind who want to take on the corporate world and win. Delightfully retro and tongue in cheek, it's the thinking person's answer to The Secret.
Richard Hollingum and Mario McMillan are the creative partnership behind international advertising and marketing agency The Department of Doing, based in Devonport. Both have extensive experience in surviving in the corporate world and superb senses of humour.
