Summary: Lean, true, and compelling
Review: This remarkable little book has by now been translated into twenty-one languages, touching the lives of hundreds of thousands of young people at the critical moment when they begin to develop their business ethics. That is what this book is really all about. How to conduct oneself ethically, how to develop oneself, how best to contribute to the world, and how to achieve genuine and well-earned success. This book could correctly have been called, "How to Become CEO the Right Way." Best of all, Fox doesn't waste your time. Zero fluff.

Summary: A Must Read for Anyone Who Wants to Succeed!
Review: Jeffrey J. Fox's book is outstanding. It provides quick, one to two page concepts. It can be read quickly and is easy to open and read at any time. I keep a copy on my desk and breeze through it often. It offers ideas that are relevant to leadership- "Friday is howya doin day" or "dress for a dance". It was written not by a professor of theory, but by someone who has been there.

Summary: Quick Read
Review: Nice, quick read.I am interested to know how many CEOs thought that this book was useful. I've come across a couple of CEOs in the reviews, but my guess is that most CEOs would disagree with the information in this book (even if it was correct).
Rating:
Summary: Short, concise, and straight to the point.
Review: I must disagree with the last comment. This book is short, concise, and straight to the point. That is what I like best about it: A quick read, yet rich of information. This is an excellent book for the busy professional.
Rating: 
Summary: Vague, vague, vague
Review: I always got docked in college composition classes for not elaborating. Mr. Fox did not explain anything for more than two pages. It also reminds me of when the teacher would ask for a 5 page paper and I would put big margins and big font size so I could turn in a 3 page paper that looked to be five. He has a writing ability comparable to a high school senior.

Summary: Great read for busy people with little or no time
Review: This book offers several "tips" for getting ahead at the office, and focuses primarily on office culture and etiquette. The book is a very simple read and most, if not all, of the tips are common sense-type things which many of us may have forgotten about (i.e., "Make Your Boss Look Good, and Your Boss's Boss Look Even Better"). This is the type of book which you can read in one hour, but should retain for periodic, future reference.
Rating:
Summary: To the point and effective
Review: This book is a good read because it gives you great tips and advice on getting ahead. The approach is not all cut-throat in nature, but is solid and useful. It can not but help you in some way. For useful plans of action on managing and teamwork on the job (which will both help you get ahead at work), I also suggest the well-regarded and popular book "The Leader's Guide: 15 Essential Skills."

Summary: Every Aspiring Professional Must Buy
Review: This book is phenominal. Every day, twice a day I open it up to any random page and try and concentrate on where my life is at in regards to his advice. It is a great gift to give to someone who you believe is aspiring to take the next step and become something more.
Rating:
Summary: Read it standing at a check out
Review: Simple and written in command format, this book could easily be distilled into a few useful points for anyone's individual taste. The book focuses on creating work habits and work culture avoidance. The author has some unusual advice, like "never go to an office party." There are interesting points, several are creative, but the author does not present evidence that these commands are followed by CEO's of major corporations. This book is essentially a lengthy magazine article of tips and hints.
Rating: 
Summary: Not worth the money and time, no substance
Review: I should have read the valuable reviews from Amazon by others before buying this book. This book is easy to read(can be browsed in an 2 hour or so) but does not have any substance. For example, it gives 'valuable' advices like 'Please, Be Polite with Everyone' and 'Be a credit maker, not a credit taker' etc. Most of the advices the author gives are what your mother taught you. The cover says 'National Bestseller' which is a mystery to me. But again, the author may be right in a sense, that we need to stick to the basics to 'Rise to the Top'.
