A Top Fortune 500 Executive tells you how to achieve success.
Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) August 5, 2004 -- Success is something everyone strives for, in work and in life. But sometimes, hard work is not enough. You have to work smart. You have to relate well with those around you. You must have direction and a strong sense of self in order to make it in todays corporate world.
Speaker and corporate consultant Richard S. Guha has written, " How To Get What You Most Want in Life-Achieve Worldly and Emotional Career Success," a clear, concise book about how to get ahead and achieve personal and emotional satisfaction. Guha is not a self-help guru. Hes a former CEO and board member of several Fortune 500 companies, hired as a consultant by a variety of industries to help firms strategically grow their businesses.
Now hes offering up valuable real life experience for the general reader:
* Learn the lesson of the expectation effect"; Harvard researcher Robert Rosenthal proved that children held to higher standards performed better, regardless of ability.
* Believe in your abilities. Reward yourself occasionally. Stay away from a loved one, boss or colleague who constantly puts you down."
* Dont take the consensus of a small group, whether theyre your friends or colleagues. Always seek independent confirmation and firsthand knowledge.
* To succeed you must often rethink the game and rewrite the rules. Go back to the drawing board when something doesn't work. The only certainty is change.
* Learn the variables that positively correlate to success–innovation, political knowledge, career initiative. Also learn those that negatively correlate to career success, such as criticism vs. constructive challenge intended to improve.
Such advice may sound general and obvious, but Guha laces his accounts with real life examples from his business experiences that help readers form a clear picture of what hes writing about. These arent hypotheses; they are lessons learned first hand, imparted honestly and directly. Best of all his formula for success includes remaining ethical.
