5.0 out of 5 stars Funny and Informative, December 4, 2006
This review is from: Office Phonics: Corporate Dictionary for Today's Middle Manager (Paperback)
A playful and fascinating insight of office terms. Not only helpful, but pokes fun at the sometimes too serious side of corporate production. The book is well organized, amusing and a quick read. I found it useful for the the day to day operation of American corporate communication. Informative and useful this slightly cynical book is a good reference. Share it with your office!

This review is from: Office Phonics: Corporate Dictionary for Today's Middle Manager (Paperback)
Quite an entertaining and informative read.I have become a SME(subject matter expert)in the world of corporate buzzwords. Now I understand a lot of what is being said around me. Highly recommended if you are new to the corporate environment, or, if you are just too proud to ask a fellow colleague.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hooked on Phonics, January 29, 2007
This review is from: Office Phonics: Corporate Dictionary for Today's Middle Manager (Paperback)
I read the book cover to cover in one sitting. It is a great read for those in Corporate America - insightful and funny at the same time. Lots of terms presented in alphbetical order. The definitions in the book can be useful to know when the need arises to understand/speak coroporate jargon.
