The 48 Laws of Power

Rating: ******* (Good)

Review:

Mix with Senge and get reality.

This is something as usual as a book on how to succeed inlife/workplace, even though it is in my opinion a lot better (and real) than most of the rubbish out there. What makes it interesting (excepting the new-age layout) is that it can be mixed with Peter Senge's The Fifth Discipline (and The Fifth Discipline Fieldbook) to get that the mixture will create something useful.

Greene and Elffers are a bit too manipulative (even if that in my opinion is the reality) and Senge is a bit too "touchy-feely" with an idealistic streak. Mix these two book and you can probably get your organisation to go where you want it to go (and keep going after you quit pushing).

Recommended.
