A sly send-up of the successful What Would Jesus Do? books, here is a satisfyingly mean light-hearted approach to business success—the Machiavellian way.
Machiavellians may not get to heaven, but on earth they have a definite edge on the competition. In this pithy and discretely vicious guide full of dark workplace humor, Stanley Bing shows how the Florentine master statesman and political thinker would handle today's myriad corporate challenges with a ruthless leadership strategy, seize the future by the throat, and make it cough up money, power, and superior office space. So, what exactly would Machiavelli do?
More than a road map to success, this is the only piece of career advice that will help anyone get what they want, whether or not they deserve it.
