Putt's Law and the Successful Technocrat: How to Win in the Information Age | |
Early Praise for Putt′s Law and the Successful Technocrat:
"This is management writing the way it ought to be. Think Dilbert, but with
a very big brain. Read it and weep. or laugh, depending on your current job
situation."
—Spectral Lines, IEEE Spectrum, April 2006
"It′s a classic. It reads at first like humor, but one eventually realizes
that it′s all true. The first edition changed my life. I loaned my copy to
a subordinate at IBM, and he didn′t return it to me until he was my boss."
—Dave Thompson, PhD, IBM Fellow (retired), Member National Academy of
Engineering, and IEEE Fellow
"Putt′s humor ranges from sharp to whimsical and is always on target.
Readers will be reminded of many personal experiences and of lessons in
life they wish they had learned earlier in their careers."
—Eric Herz, former IEEE executive director and general manager
"Anyone who thinks ′engineering management′ is an oxymoron needs to read
this terrific book — then they will know."
—Norman R. Augustine, author of Augustine′s Laws and retired Chairman & CEO
of Lockheed Martin Corporation
Putt′s Law is as true today as it was when techno–everyman Archibald Putt
first stated it. Now, in Putt′s Law and the Successful Technocrat: How to
Win in the Information Age, Putt is back with the unvarnished truth about
success in the modern, technology–driven organization.
As you learn the real rules of the technology world, you′ll meet such
characters as the successful technocrat, Dr. I. M. Sharp. You′ll find out
how he wrangles career victories from corporate failures, nearly
bankrupting the firm with his projects while somehow emerging the hero.
You′ll also meet such unfortunates as Roger Proofsworthy, top–level
perfectionist yet low in the hierarchy, and come to understand how he
assiduously preserves his spot near the bottom of the totem pole.
Whether you work in business, IT, or are a freelance technocrat, you′ll
want to study Putt′s hard–won wisdom and laugh—all the way to the bank!
