I didn't find this book useful at all!

I found it funny! Worth a read if you've ever had to sit through meetings!

'100 Tricks to Appear Smart in Meetings: How to Get By Without Even Trying' by Sarah Cooper is a humorous how to guide that will probably not make you look that smart.

Corporate meetings are often the bane of corporate life. Some meetings are productive, most feel like a waste of time. Fear not, because this book will attempt to help you climb the corporate ladder through meetings with co-workers. With chapter titles like Whiteboard Tactics: 21 Meaningless Diagrams You Can Draw, and How To Make Your Meeting Seem Less Like A Meeting Even Though It's Totally A Meeting, you will likely recognize many of these odd behaviors in meetings you have attended.

It's a pretty funny book because it seems to have been written by someone who has attended a lot of meeting and observed the odd one-upmanship that takes place in them. It seems that human behavior can provide many opportunities for humor.

I received a review copy of this ebook from Andrews McMeel Publishing and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this ebook.
