"Strunk and White" for Meeting Attendees
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
Dr. Simon Ramo, a ninety-two-year-old legend in the aerospace industry (he's the "R" in TRW), has written what may be the definitive guide for those of us forced to attend business meetings. And one cannot imagine an author more qualified for this task, having attended an estimated 40,000 meetings himself. Employing a myriad of colorful, and at times humorous, anecdotes, Mr. Ramo promulgates meeting etiquette in a way that manages to be authoritative without becoming overly preachy. If only every business school graduate and corporate executive were compelled to read this book (and take it to heart), we'd all benefit from fewer, shorter and more productive workplace gatherings. The book's one notable omission is the teleconference, which in many companies now overshadows the face-to-face meeting in frequency and import. A worthy topic for a second edition, perhaps? -Kevin Joseph, author of "The Champion Maker"
