Funny because it's true. Too true. The author Sarah Cooper is a mad-woman (and a genius). She wrote "10 Tricks to Appear Smart in Meetings" with 5+ million views and now this. It's madness (and makes me laugh tears). Check it out. You'll learn how to appear smart in less than half the time it takes to actually learn anything. Plus, it makes the perfect gift for coworkers (the ones you like anyways). I use a lot of parentheses don't I?
This book should be mandatory in all workspaces! My favorite is #39, however it's mostly used to assign tasks to others...
First time I heard about this book was when Sarah gave a hilarious presentation at FunnyBizz. Very recommended if you want a laugh right away: https://youtu.be/nk7LvL-71f0
This walks a thin line between absolutely hilarious and totally true. Now I have to wonder if people who actually do these things are just blowing smoke :) Thanks for writing this!
@wxiluo Yes! You can preorder it now on kindle, apple books and google play (but it will be published in China, just not sure when) Thanks for your question :-)
@sarahcpr haha, alright. loved your "10 tricks" article. i have to try not to laugh whenever somebody wants to go back a slide. that makes me realize: you ruined me for meetings, Sarah. way to go.
I just wanted to say that this book changed my life. I've used all 100 tricks and I am now the CTO of a well funded startup. Without this book I'd be cutting out the business cards of other CTOs at FedEx still. Thank you Sarah Cooper!
@sarahcpr Investors love these tricks. If I do a handful of these investors will just give you money. They offer 500K I say "will it scale" and they will talk about how we need more money to scale, they offer a million, repeat. Life changer.
