To succeed at work, career counselor and Wall Street Journal contributor
Dominguez argues, employees need to have smarts and be creative-but they also
must know how to play the game. That involves dealing with ever-changing
bosses, marketing themselves to superiors and peers, mastering office politics,
coping with difficult workers and landing promotions and raises in any economy.
Dominguez explains how to do all these things and more. By laying out possible
scenarios and then offering tips on how to act, she teaches readers how to get
along at work, create plans for moving ahead in their careers and craft
graceful exits should they decide to leave. Her style is accessible and her
tone is realistic, and she employs examples from actual companies like AT&T and
Starbucks. Anyone whos encountered cranky coworkers, incompetent bosses or
other tough personalities-or is just having a difficult time getting ahead in
the office-will find coping strategies in these pages.
