Eat, or be eaten. To Phil Porter, that sums up the golden rule of corporate America. With tongue firmly in cheek and an eye on his back, this veteran corporate shark reveals just how those master corporate politicians operate--and how to beat them at their cutthroat game. Porter outlines 81 survival skills and battle tactics to protect everyone who isn't a tyrant CEO--and arm anyone who aspires to be one. Among the battle tactics are the art of the personal attack, leveraging your worth by threatening to quit, and shifting focus and blame to others for your screw-ups. Eye opening, hilarious, and chilling, EAT--OR BE EATEN! has the lowdown on what it takes to survive--and prosper--in even the most fiercely competitive corporate jungle. There is nothing subtle about the way Porter advises that the game be played-you play ruthlessly and play to win!
