Skryf Review
Good book
Faster, Smarter, Higher is yet another masterpiece from the author, Utkarsh Rai. This is a wonderful guide to fast track one’s career. The book gives a clear insight into the corporate world dynamics. Real life career and work challenges and the solutions have been put down lucidly by the author. The book covers all aspects of career building; the topics are ranging from managing one’s goal, managing the manager, managing the manager’s boss to even how to extend the shelf-life of an employee by re-inventing himself/ herself. There is a lot to learn from this book. The topics are timeless and universal. It is must-read for every employee and every manager.
