Professional Wisdom in Plain English !
Happened to read an article by the author (Sandeep Das) on Linkedin. Was impressed immediately and looked up for more, and came across this book and one more on Storytelling.Next day both landed at my doorstep, courtesy-Amazon.Great book, simple and humorous style keeps the reader engaged. Lots of useful gems in short paragraphs. Hats off to Sandeep Das !P.S - This title may be available from mutiple publications. I found SAGE Publishing version has bright & better quality of paper / print.

Review : Hacks for Life & Career
Sandeep, you are a STAR. I reluctantly bought this book a couple of months ago, assuming this would be another MBA gyan book. But the style and humor, compelled me to read more every time I finished a chapter or two. Highly recommended for MBAs aspirants (for application of theoretical concepts in real life problems), budding entrepreneurs (to execute strategies and operation) and MBA graduates too for a fun brush up. Look forward to many more HACKS for Career and Life. 😊

It doesn't get any better than this
As one of the reviews read, " Millenials would lap this book up." Extremely informative, insightful and interesting. Can't wait for the next in series

Offers a layman’s overview to walking the journey to corporate and entrepreneurial success.
Every generation trash-talks younger generations. Baby boomers labelled Generation X a group of tattooed layabouts and materialists; Generation Xers have branded millennials as iPhone-addicted brats. The truth is, being a millennial is not easy.Millennials comprise one-third of India’s population of which conservative estimates suggest over 90% are unemployable. While the average millennial struggles with low remuneration and motivation, there are some who become Instagram influencers and earn fame and money off social media.With this book, the author provides life hacks to help millennials face the world professionally and personally. It discusses various topics along the lines of entrepreneurship, self-help, technological disruption and financial literacy, bridging the gap between what the education system offers and what corporates desire. Whether it is learning to manage a difficult boss and upsell oneself in a corporate career or deciding to quit altogether and take up an entrepreneurial role, the book presents a layman’s overview to finding your desired path and walking the journey towards success.These hacks aim to give a strategic advantage so that the effort you put in is multiplied, moving you that much faster and closer to your ideal lifestyle. The book definitely speaks to the millennial’s goal of landing jobs with nine figure starting salaries. I don’t find myself subscribing whole-heartedly to the views presented here; at the same time, I wouldn’t write it off entirely. If you’re just starting out or are planning to switch over to a tech-based career, you might find this entertaining and somewhat relevant.For complete review, visit aquamarineflavours.wordpress.com.
