HOW TO DO A GREAT JOB AND GO HOME ON TIME
Fergus O'Connell 9780 73 704553
Unfortunately a number of people within the industry are always pressured into working late to meet unmovable deadlines. If you think going home on time is an unachievable goal then this book will assist you in stepping back and viewing your job from a different angle. It teaches you some good ways of negotiating your workload with your boss (e.g. saying no!). The suggestion to creating a "dance card" of your tasks and time will help you focus on what is important within your role. It may also aid you in gaining extra staff resources if necessary. Remember, you have a life outside of your job. This book will help you live it.

NICE GIRLS DON'T GET THE CORNER OFFICE
Lois P Frankel ISBN 978-0446695770
This title is a little bit misleading, as most of the 'mistakes' that may be made when playing office politics are frequently done by either gender. If you are someone who doesn't 'do office politics', or someone who always seems to draw the short straw when new projects are being assigned, or you've been overlooked for promotion, you'll learn from this book how to minimise the damage and stop it happening again. There are some great tips in here and we have been recommending this to a high number of our clients.
