The secrets to success in business aren't secrets at all. They are
simple and obvious, but we overlook them. This life-changing book
offers the short-cut road to success - in business and beyond
giving digestible and effective advice that actually works, served
up with inspirational anecdotes in a humorous style. 'The Obvious'
is a refreshingly simple and original business book. Business guru
James Dale shows how the principles, values, and strategies that
make businesses successful are those simple ideas that apply to
life. Listening opens up worlds to you, paying attention puts you
at an advantage over people who don't even show up, and telling the
truth beats lying ten times out of ten. Try the simple - it's
almost always more effective than the complicated. You'll find this
book not only a sharp, cut-to-the-chase career book, but also an
handbook of engaging wisdom that will bring you fast solutions to
problems in any area of your life. 'The Obvious' reveals the eight
core lessons you need to remember - each full of humour and
fascinating anecdotes about the world's most successful movers and
shakers. You'll find compelling real-life examples of the
'simple=success' formula from companies such as Apple and IBM, Ikea
and Starbucks, as well as innovative people from Thomas Edison and
Bill Gates, to Woody Allen and Steven Spielberg. Some 'Obvious'
life-lessons that work: Simple is Better Than Complicated - ask if
you don't know; shut up and listen; be nice - it gets results. Be
Honest - the truth is powerful; apologies work; an excuse is not a
reason; take responsibility - 'I will do it' gets you noticed. Open
Your Mind - failure is a good teacher; bosses are not all idiots -
learn from them. Energy Gives You the Edge - patience is a virtue;
so is impatience; 'Do it today' - the key to effectiveness.
Readable, fast-paced and entertaining, 'The Obvious' is for
anyone's business bookshelf, from the CEO to the postroom, HR
director to the entire sales force - or anyone wanting to be
successful in life.
