Monkey Business: Swinging Through the Wall Street Jungle

Monkey Business: Swinging Through the Wall Street Jungle Review

Monkey Business: Swinging Through the Wall Street Jungle Overview

They Hit "The Street." Forget what you've read, forget what you've heard, forget what you've been taught. Monkey Business pulls off Wall Street's suspenders and gives the reader the inside skinny on real life at an investment bank, where the promised land is always one more twenty-hour workday and another lap dance away. "The Street" Hit Back. Fresh out of Wharton and Harvard business schools, John Rolfe and Peter Troob ran willingly into the open arms of investment bank giant Donaldson, Lufkin and Jenrette. They had signed on as foot soldiers in a white-collar army of overworked and frustrated lemmings furiously trying to spin straw into gold. They escaped with the remnants of their sanity-and, ultimately, this book. Uncensored, unsanitized, and uncut, it captures the chaotic essence of the Wall Street carnival and the outlandish personalities that make it all hum...and it will become the smartest, most entertaining investment you'll make this year.

Self Leadership and the One Minute Manager: Increasing Effectiveness Through Situational Self Leadership

Self Leadership and the One Minute Manager: Increasing Effectiveness Through Situational Self Leadership Review

Ken Blanchard does it again. Situational leadership explained for the novice (and tenured) manager in less then 200 pages. Management and leadership are complex. Cookie cutter approaches no longer function in the workplace. Different generations and skill sets cohabitating in the same environment can be a nightmare. You can't even treat a tenured employee exactly the same if he is given a new task to perform. This concept is difficult for many managers to comprehend.

Self Leadership and the One Minute Manager explains the concept of situational leadership in a short story format that is simple to understand and apply. I've been through many leadership courses and this book takes a year long course and consolidates it into an easy to understand format.

This book can easily be finished in 1 to 2 hours with plenty of take aways.
