A business book that is laugh out loud funny? Yes, indeed. The Real Truth About Success tells a story, a funny story, about how the author took a look at all the platitudes and stories successful people tell about how they did it. Most of which are just the lies you want to hear. What makes the top one percent truly successful is how they use their distinct advantages, personality traits, friends of friends, and creativity to make their own success.
Written with a light touch and a self-deprecating sense of humor, Garrison Wynn introduces the reader to real people who found that special something about themselves that set them apart, made them look or sound different, and then used that advantage to creative success in the business world.
Highly recommended for recent college graduates with management ambitions.
