    Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:

    ⭐First of all i bought this book for $7 instead of $20 at Barnes & Noble, so Amazon is the way to go. Further more, it is what it said.. & books in one and a great reference tool. YOu will not read this like a book but use it as a reference tool for issue handling scenarios and tips

    ⭐Excellent product…would buy again and again!

    ⭐This is a great book for me, teaching me much while I have not the time or money to take all of these courses, I get a great overview in this volume.

    ⭐This is a neat combination of the practical and the human-centered. I am reluctant to use the word “spiritual” because that could imply a certain woo-woo flavor to the book. Rather, it’s a terrific no-frills collection of business how-to’s and straightforward guidance in managing oneself. It acknowledges the truth that I am the only one who can control myself and if I don’t take care of myself I will be no good at work. There are great tips on managing stress, organizing, stretching, and even suggestions for the “coffee break” (how about fruit instead of coffee? What a concept!). And don’t even call this “soft” skills. The authors deal with the hard stuff: Resolving conflict at work, delegating, goal setting and prioritizing, making presentations – the works. The book speaks to a wide audience of managers, employees, the self-employed – even students would benefit from it.I found the checklists and self-evaluations relevant and engaging. The tools are presented in easy-to-follow formats. None of that complicated, uber-branded, theoretical stuff. The book is laid out such that I can go to the section of interest and gain a lot without having to read the whole book (good news since it’s over 600 pages). Many useful websites are referenced. I am also quite intrigued by the blending of the thirteen authors’ philosophies and tools. None of the seven books is attributed to any one author and those known to me pop through, throughout the book. This is the best all-in-one I’ve seen in a long time and is a wonderful addition to my library.

    ⭐This book is your own stop shop for improving your professional environment. There are so many useful and practical tips packed in here the only thing you have to do is devote the time to read it. Whether you are wanting to communicate your messages with clarity or run a successful meeting, your step by step tools are all here. I’ve been working for ten years so I don’t need a big picture book that generalizes, I love that there are concrete suggestions for real life situations I face in my job. Pick up this book and keep it in a desk drawer to pull out whenever you need!

    ⭐This book taught me all the basic concepts and skills that I needed to know to function better in the workforce as an employee. This is a very worhwhile book to read.

    ⭐Thriving in the Workplace All-In-one for Dummies is a great book for those wanting to succeed in the workplace. The book is chalked full of practical advice and the information is presented in an easy to follow manner. I found each section of the book to provide tips that I can use now and strategies to use in the future. I would recommend this book to anyone interested in thriving at their job.

    ⭐Great for sharpening personal skills like time management and productivity

    ⭐brilliant for dipping in and out of when I need help and support with my working life. Good tips and advice and easy to read. Overall my favourite self help book for my working life.
