About the Book

A Twenty-Something's Guide to Workplace Culture and Communication Flip-Flops and Microwaved Fish is all about helping soon-to-be-college grads and those first starting out in their careers learn how to be more than just professional-ish. It offers funny, practical advice on truly understanding and managing life at work. Written for both American and non-American twenty-somethings and anyone who's uncertain about what standard business protocol in an office should look like, this book provides useful tips that can be immediately implemented to help them adapt well to their workplace culture. In a light-hearted and conversational way, Peter Yawitz, a 30-year veteran in global communications consulting, walks readers through not only formal and written rules of office communication but also unwritten cultural norms in American companies both in the US and abroad. As ""Someone Else's Dad"" who offers great advice without all the nagging and judgment one might receive from their own father, the author gives the straight talk on business etiquette. Readers will find an advocate in Yawitz, someone who can help them succeed not only professionally but also socially at work. They'll be entertained and laugh out loud at the same time that they develop the insights they'll need to advance in their careers.
