The New Rules for Success

From a celebrated career advice columnist comes a clear, goal-oriented, and in-your-face guide to getting what you want in business and in life - aimed specifically at generations X and Y.

Are you taking long lunches? Ignoring sexual harassment? Do you keep your desk neat to the point of looking like you might not have enough to do? According to expert business advice columnist Penelope Trunk, you should be.

So what does Trunk say it takes to succeed in your career on your own terms? Being goal-oriented, irreverent and free agent-minded. In her debut book, Trunk gives anything-but-standard advice to help generation X and Y readers blow past the competition in any industry. Whether it's admitting to yourself you stink at what you do and changing fields to find your calling or taking the low road and working office politics to your advantage, Trunk asserts that a take-charge attitude and thinking outside of the box are the only ways to make it in today's job market.

With 45 tips that you're guaranteed to have never heard before, BRAZEN CAREERIST is bound to get you thinking bigger, acting bolder and blazing trails you never thought possible in the business world.
