One of the Top 10 career development books recommended by MSL. Also a great gift-giving book to employees, co-workers and friends.

In her new book, "Corporate Confidential" Cynthia Shapiro provides clues on slip-ups to avoid and attitudes to embrace to keep your career always "half full." In an age of layoffs, she spells out the danger signs that you may be next. Want to wear pink hair to your creative job? Better think again..it could cost you..this is business and how the company's clients view you does matter. She reminds us that email is not private and needs to be treated with great respect. And finally, the best person to help you in the organization is your boss. And if your boss isn't a help, she provides excellent strategies for working a solution. On the other side, Shapiro saves the last chapters for helping aspiring managers become rising managers - and how to move from "invisible" from "indispensable" (hint~the four things that companies reward is: flexibility, sales, public speaking and high level goal achievement).

The book is friendly, concise, easy to read, straight-out practical and well written. Inspiring, yes!! Shapiro starts her book by stating that she left a job as a VP of Human Resources to be an advocate, and wrote her book "from a genuine love for the HR profession, a first-hand understanding of what corporations are up against in our highly litigious society and the highest respect for hard working employees.

(From quoting A. Hanson, USA)

Target readers: All corporate worker ants, that is all managers and employees. Especially good for managers and employees in foreign companies.
