Review: This book will help us elucidates our expectations in the working world. - I recommended this for newcomers to the workforce, this book effectively elucidates the expectations of the working world. The author skillfully communicates essential insights. However, For individuals like me with several years of professional experience might find limited novelty in the content. While it may not offer groundbreaking revelations for seasoned professionals, there are still valuable reminders and noteworthy points to consider. Overall, it proves beneficial for those navigating the early stages of their career, though its value diminishes for those with more extensive work experience. Review: Good book on its own - even better with discussion - Some of the stuff in this book was intuitive. But a coworker and I both bought the book then discussed, and I was amazed at the different stuff he got out of it versus me. I think the book discussion elevated the book (and is probably true for any "self help" book). I probably would have ranked it three stars otherwise. It's worth a buy, and even more worth it if you discuss with someone else who reads it. It motivated me to find my weaknesses, and figure out a way to improve them. It also encouraged me to keep moving in my career, and to ask for more stuff. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #675,227 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #440 in Job Hunting (Books) #2,329 in Motivational Management & Leadership #2,716 in Business Motivation & Self-Improvement (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 out of 5 stars 294 Reviews | ## Images ![Who Gets Promoted, Who Doesn't, and Why, Second Edition: 12 Things You'd Better Do If You Want to Get Ahead - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/715+mKYXi+L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This book will help us elucidates our expectations in the working world. *by E***U on January 18, 2024* I recommended this for newcomers to the workforce, this book effectively elucidates the expectations of the working world.

No non-sense, practical, sensible advice on how to survive and thrive at work. It is an honest book, so be ready for some hard truths. But I think this book is exactly on-point, and I applaud the author for making this information available to us, and distilling it in a way that's so easy to understand (and with discipline, to implement). In fact, after I read this book, I had a lot of "aha" moments. Things that used to confuse me before are clear now. This book will allow you to understand how companies make decisions, why you didn't get promoted after your glowing review, how to navigate the office. It's an indispensable book for anyone who cares about their career. ## Frequently Bought Together - Who Gets Promoted, Who Doesn't, and Why, Second Edition: 12 Things You'd Better Do If You Want to Get Ahead - Secrets to Winning at Office Politics - It's All Politics: Winning in a World Where Hard Work and Talent Aren't Enough --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/14313404-who-gets-promoted-who-doesnt-and-why-second-edition-12](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/14313404-who-gets-promoted-who-doesnt-and-why-second-edition-12) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-06-18*
