Although we learn something from every book, most popular management books aren't based on rigorous empirical research. Therefore, while the suggestions made by the author may have worked for some, there is no guarantee that they will work for you.

Professor Jim Jawahar asks eight successful individuals to share their career journeys and then explains the theoretical framework underlying the concepts and principles that contributed to their success. Each path shows the way to accomplishing a goal, including:

  • Reducing work stress

  • Ensuring a fair workplace

  • Enhancing workplace diversity

  • Achieving psychological well-being

  • Modifying a boring job into an exciting and meaningful job

  • Securing an excellent performance evaluation
