review 1: The problem I had with this book that it shifted between either too general or too specific information. By too general I mean something like writing through two pages about things like the fact that you need to keep learning at all times. Or that you need to help your coworkers. By too specific I mean describing someone's situation at job and how he/she resolved the problem. The most interesting information author could have written lies in between very specific and very general information.
review 2: This is probably one of the worst audio-book experiences I've had, and oddly, I'm not sure why. Part of it, perhaps, is that from my perspective, the author over-sold herself in the beginning (Ok, ok - you know what you're talking about - can we please start the
... morebooks now?). I also felt that some parts were a bit obvious. While that is good for some people missing some of the basic of professional human interaction, it wasn't quite right for me. I found myself not looking forward to listening (and I love listening to audio book), and found myself bored and drifting. The book might work better for me at a different time in my life, but at this point, it just missed the mark for me. If you are having some issues with interoffice communication and relationships with clients and co-workers, I would nonetheless still recommend this book. less
