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 and 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 (Ace, Queen and Jack), How to a write a business plan and a strategy and is there a difference?, Is there life beyond email? and The art of delegation.
