Brought to you by Penguin.Dilbert creator Scott Adams' funny memoir about his many failures and what they eventually taught him about successScott Adams has probably failed at more things than anyone you've ever met. So how did he go from hapless office worker and serial failure to the creator of Dilbert, one of the world's most famous comic strips, in just a few years?No career guide can offer advice that works for everyone. Your best bet is to study the ways of others who made it big and try to glean some tricks that make sense for you. So here Scott Adams tells how he turned one failure after another - including a corporate career, inventions, investments, and two restaurants - into something successful. Along the way he discovered some unlikely truths. Goals are for losers; systems are for winners. Forget 'passion'; what you need is personal energy.In this brilliant book, Adams shows us how to invite failure in, embrace it, then pick its pocket. While you laugh at his failures, you'll discover some helpful ideas for your own path to personal victory.'Adams has a funny, refreshingly considered set of ideas about how to find success-and what that success will look like when one gets there' Kirkus Reviews'Scott Adams has drawn nearly 9,000 Dilbert cartoons since the strip began, in 1989, and his cynical take on management ideas, the effectiveness of bosses and cubicle life has affected the worldview of millions. But he built his successful career mainly through trial and error-a whole lot of error, to be exact' Harvard Business Review Scott Adams 2013 (P) Penguin Audio 2022

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Scott Adams

Nasceu em 1957 em Nova Iorque. Estudou Economia e durante 8 anos trabalhou no Crocker National Bank. Na Universidade de Berkeley, obtém um MBA e trabalha 9 anos como engenheiro na companhia "Pacific Bell", mas as suas relações com as hierarquias não são as melhores. É no ano de 1988 que Scott Adams apresenta a diversas empresas tiras com desenhos de Dilbert e Dogbert. Os seus personagens foram inspirados em colegas de trabalho, o que resulta numa crítica mordaz à maneira de trabalhar nas grandes empresas. De início, o seu trabalho foi recusado por quase todas as editoras. Porém, a United Media ofereceu-lhe um contrato que aceitou de imediato. E aos 45 anos de idade torna-se milionário, graças ao "bonequinho sem boca" que a revista People incluiu na sua lista das 25 personalidades mais interessantes do país, ao lado da popstar Madonna. O seu trabalho já lhe valeu vários prémios, entre eles, o Newspaper Comic Strip Award, em 1997.
