Working up the corporate ladder is all well and good for "most people, but you are not "most people." You are a highly motivated individual who wants to be on the fast track, and you cannot afford to fritter away valuable time working diligently and competently on the job. You need Dave Barry's surefire tips in "Claw Your Way to the Top!

"I don't mean to suggest for a moment that all it takes to be a top executive is a custom-tailored European suit. You also need the correct shirt and tie."

"Remember, your subordinates are not machines. They are human beings with the same dreams as you. OK, maybe not "all the same dreams. Probably they don't have the one where you're naked in a vat of Yoo-Hoo with the Soviet gymnastics team." (back cover)
