What Would Machiavelli Do? The Ends Justify the Meanness
by Stanley Bing
(0 reviews)
What Would Machiavelli Do? and Throwing the Elephant. Fortune's Stanley Bing has written two very different but complementary survival guides for today's business world. Inspired by the Florentine master, Bing offers (in Machiavelli) a way of seeing colleagues and rivals from 50,000 feet -- as teeny-tiny ants you can squish. When this method doesn't work (e.g., you have a boss), Bing counsels a Zen approach (in Elephant) that will allow you to render the elephant (i.e., your boss) weightless -- and throw and play catch with it at corporate retreats.How did the rich and powerful get where they are today? The answer is simple: they're meaner. That's all. And if you want to get where they're going, you'll be meaner, too.
