Title: Sends a bad message
Review: I read all the business and management books that I can find and this is by far the worst I have ever seen. The main character spends the entire book devoting his life to improving at his job after he makes a mediocre presentation to a client. In the end he finally presents the results of all his hard work to his supervisor. When she reacts positively, he stammers "you mean you are not going to fire me?" Are you kidding me? He showed he is as dedicated an employee as there ever was and worked like crazy to get better at his job. After all his dedication he ends up with very little self confidence. And even worse, his boss replies, "I can't afford to fire you." She jokes about how much they have invested in his training. Unbelievably bad book, the writing is very sophmoric, and the overall message is one of self doubt, groveling, and low self confidence. Save your money and avoid this book!
