Informative, accessible, and useful

I enjoyed Lancaster's column in the journal and hoped he would distill his work there into book form. Much of what he describes is done in other books; however he writes crisply and well. The book lacks jargon or chirpy advice. I find more balance in his examples than in most books of this type. He's clearly thought long and hard about these issues and it shows.

A solid business book

Promoting Yourself: 52 Lessons For Getting To The Top...And Staying There by journalist and columnist Hal Lancaster (The Wall Street Journal) is a solid business book packed with a wealth of practical tips, trips, and techniques to surviving office politics and new bosses, making oneself look good for promotion, improving one's negotiation and communication skills, and much more. A highly practical and sensible book for dedicated workers looking to earn a higher position in their chosen field, Promoting Yourself is especially recommended for the non-specialist general reader and a welcome contribution to community library Jobs/Careers reference collections.

Good reference guide

Use this book as a sort of guidance counselor. Mr. Lancaster wrote the short easy-to-read chapters much like a career journal column in the Wall Street Journal.All of the chapters won't apply to everyone, but Lancaster does a good job of moving along the topic with good specific examples.A quick read that will stay on my referral shelf. All topics covered should apply now and in the future to all of us out there with difficult jobs, bosses and decisions to be made. Good stuff!
