This was a quick read. I finished it in one day, the great skimmer. This is more catered to business type jobs, but I found a few tips that I can apply to my work and personal life.

Their style of writing was easy to follow. The writing was not weighed down with a lot of unnecessary story telling. However, I did not like the true/false questions in each section. I had to keep flipping back to the page with the questions while reading the answers to get a full understanding. The questions should be included with each explanation in any future editions. That's just my two cents.

Happy Reading,
Erika

This book is essentially meant for business personnel which is obvious given the title. I did learn a few things which might help me in the future but there was little to take from it in terms of general personal improvement. The tips and lessons were nice and the writing was good but it was far from a compelling and insightful read.

I really enjoyed this book! Although I'm not currently out in the workforce, I still learned a lot about myself and how I can improve my image. I'm that much more prepared for employment down the road. I really think everyone can relate to this book!

Solid tips if you apply them. Recommended reading list included.

Was hoping for some revelations from this book, but it's mostly about image and how to change your image. Too big picture

No esperaba descubrir el hilo negro, pero los tips útiles son muy pocos en el libro.
