101 Ways to Stand Out at Work by Arthur D. Rosenberg

Arthur D. Rosenberg is looking for the answers to the key career success questions. “Dreaming of job satisfaction?”, “Tired of being overlooked for promotions?”, “Hoping for more than a 2-percent raise?”

He is an experienced consultant and has worked with companies such as UPS,AT&T, Citibank, Prudential, and Viacom.

Here are my top 10 choices among his 101 ways:

1. The more you know, the more power you can bring to bear.

There is no way to escape the doing of our world, so what a warrior does is to turn his world into his hunting ground. As a hunter, a warrior knows that the world is made to be used. So he uses every bit of it.  

2. Conquer yourself and Everest will lie at your feet

3. The best way to interest people in you is to pay attention to them

4. Effective communication can eliminate the majority of management problems

5. If you want it, ask for it

6. Leading is about us, not me

7. Half your skills become obsolete every four to six years, and the clock is ticking

8. Life is short; spend your time with people you like

9. Never get too comfortable

10. A bad plan is better than no plan, because it can be improved

If you want to learn on those tips and more, buy this book. I really liked reading it.
