Customer Reviews

A must-read for all engineers

This book is packed with useful tips for excelling in the corporate environment. It is all about the "whens" and "hows" of making a good impression and achieving the greatest impact. This is not a technical book--it focuses more on how to deal with the organization. It includes tips like how to find and utilize a good mentor, and the importance of maintaining a company calendar (for scheduling requests when they will have the most impact). The editing of this book is poor--it has a lot of typographical and grammatical errors. But if you look beyond the writing errors, there is an awful lot of useful, practical information. This is a book that every engineer, from the new college graduate to the senior engineer, should read.
