City Slackers

With wit, humor, and complete seriousness, this motivational book shows aspiring business leaders how to win the corporate game without actually accomplishing anything. Arguing against the traditional slow climb up the corporate ladder, this approach demonstrates how to reach the top quickly and effortlessly by replacing hard work with outward finesse. Specific advice includes choosing soft projects with high visibility, such as redesigning the company's logo, rotating key buzzwords into even casual conversations, and becoming the ultimate yes person that appears to put the company first but cleverly undermines the management structure to move ahead before they do.
