Description

Today, all humans who work for a living are in business in one way or another. They are the participants, cheerleaders, anti-heroes, first responders, or economically injured people in a national and global game.

Review

Business Fables Adopted From Aesop For Humans Who Work for a Living is a spoof on American corporate culture that... explores the world of work.

Irony and social inspection come alive from the start...Whether analyzing office outings and assertiveness training or considering the ineffectiveness of megatrends and a fox who becomes involved in financing, each story holds a link to the business world that points out its ironies, inconsistencies, and underlying mirth that accompanies downfalls, misperceptions, and business strategies.

The idea is to elicit the rare laugh from the business-oriented mentality while adding a touch of thought-provoking inspection...The result is a rollicking good read that tempers humor with real-world inspections and invites all readers to consider the roots of decision-making and analytical process.
