Employee To Executive is a humorous guide to corporate life. It is
the unofficial and unauthorized workplace survival guidebook. It is
written for anyone who desires to join the corporate world or is
already a member and aspires for more. It will provide a light to
guide you through a strange and complex world. As a member of the
corporate world, you are a part of a community of individuals that
has changed history and circles the globe. This book will be your
guide from being an employee to becoming an executive by covering
what you need to know from the basement to the boardroom. This
guidebook chronicles the origins and development of the
corporation, which are as old as mankind itself. From the time
primitive man first painted corporate logos on the walls of caves,
the history of mankind can be seen as the history of the
corporation beginning with primitive man's first attempt at
incorporating, the limited partnership. Getting a job and keeping
it can be an adventure. It can be a risky and dangerous enterprise
fraught with traps and pitfalls. You will feel the joy and elation
that goes along with doing something new, but don't worry these
feelings will quickly pass. History is full of reminders of the
dangers of embarking on a new adventure. Many people have struck
out bravely into unfamiliar waters only to be eaten by sea monsters
or sail off the edge of the earth. This guidebook will take you to
uncharted regions of the corporate world to participate in bizarre
rituals, unfamiliar customs, and speak corporate jargon. It
introduces you to those other people in the office and what they do
or don't do. It presents survival techniques to get you through
coffee breaks, lunches, elevator rides, conventions, mergers,
hostile takeovers, and other acts of controlled violence. It offers
advice to equip you for the corporate way of life and outfit you
for the job from looking your best, to what you need to keep in
your desk, to sleeping around the office. It answers many of the
important questions you might have, in an open and forthright way
like, where do corporations come from? Employee To Executive offers
satirical, humorous advice presented as a useful guide to help you
understand the corporate world, as we know it, or not. It will be
your constant companion and a source of advice, inspiration, and
amusement for all.
