| 520 | |a In this new book, 'A Bull in a Glass House, ' author Jose Astorga draws from a deep well of sharp observations, witty insight, and common sense to pass on his passion, experience, and truths learned in corporate hell. It's one ex-Marine's battle for sanity in the workplace and it reveals compelling truths, one of which includes: Life is too short to spend every day working in misery. Are Sunday evenings your personal threshold to hell? If so, read on. When Jose Astorga left the Marines for a steady stint in corporate America, he had no idea what he was in for. Management that valued the dollar and personal perks more than their own employees. Life-sucking corporate bureaucracy. And mindless projects that wasted time, effort, and money. Is it even possible to prepare for this? Now, it actually might be. Astorga's clever manifesto is a study on the human condition: Embrace change, value those you work with, and the three basic human needs - security, belonging, and respect - will be satisfied. Focusing on the executive versus employee chasm he lurked in during his 20-year-long career, Astorga's message is clear: Success originates not on an academic certificate, but from discipline, tenacity, loyalty, and adaptability. Written for those with little tolerance for waste, stupidity, shameless groveling, and inefficiency, A Bull in a Glass House is the ultimate manifesto for navigating the human, corporate condition. Praise for Bull in a Glass House: ' ... informed, insightful, and inspiring reading that is recommended for anyone in business ... ' -- Michael Dunford, 'Dunford's Bookshelf, ' Midwest Book Review; ' ... a practical guide on how to live in that world, how to reframe that world, how to succeed in that world. No wasted words here ... a quick read packed with insight.' -- Michael LaRocca, author and editor 'Current workplace leaders and people who see themselves as future leaders would especially benefit from reading this book.' -- Winningworkplaces.org : About José Astorga: In 1986, after three years in the Marines and a short stint as an armed guard, this former Marine secured a job in a growing company. He came armed with only a high school education and no skills, other than being an expert marksman in the Marines. His last 10 years in management provided an in-your-face, practical view of the paradox between corporate level expectations and behavior. 'A Bull in a Glass House' is the first in a series of books that will benefit the earnest reader. | ||
