Rule Breakers' Book Of Business

A simple, refreshing approach to business that defies conventional wisdom and aims to make work in the office more successful and more enjoyable. A business bible for imaginative and aspirational young men and women. Climbing the career ladder can be scary, and it often feels comfortable to stay with the crowd. But you won't come out in front by following the others. Success depends on being brave enough to do things differently. Instead of sticking slavishly to the conventional wisdom, you need to be willing to break the rules, and carve your own path. The Rule-Breaker's Book of Business tells you how. Based on a lifetime of success in advertising, industry, media and design, Roger Mavity shows you how a little imagination and original thinking can achieve more than a ton of logic and analysis. Refreshingly honest and straightforward, this new route-map through the jungle of office life is packed with innovative but practical ideas for dealing with common problems at work. It will tell you how you can achieve your ambitions by doing things differently - and how you can enjoy yourself on the way. In The Rule Breaker's Book of Business, Roger Mavity provides clear advice and guidance for anybody ambitious about work, yet uncertain of their route to success. The book is devoted to the simple - yet vital - idea that success at work is much more likely to be achieved if we are happy and confident in what we do. But it also believes that fun, and success, at work don't come from slavishly following the rules. On the contrary, it's only by ignoring the conventional wisdom, by breaking a few rules, by daring to use different means, that we have a chance of achieving something remarkable. The short and refreshingly simple chapters are divided into three sections: dealing with money, dealing with the people around you and dealing with yourself. Each chapter identifies a common problem at work and resolves each problem in a clear and approachable way. Chapters include: - Cash is King (and Ace, Queen and Jack) - How to a write a business plan, and a strategy, and is there a difference? - Is there life beyond email? - The art of delegation To find out more, visit www.rogermavity.com.
