This book will be very helpful to:
1. Anyone about to start their career and would like to understand the people they are gonna work with.
2. Someone who is struggling at the workplace, dealing with people.
3. Any human who is really keen to understand the people around them.

I won’t term this book as an eye-opener, but something that is worth digging into. This book deals with a topic that we all find fascinating, but don’t bother to understand what really makes it fascinating. Yes, the book deals with understanding people in our professional world or corporate culture.

According to the author, there are only 4 types of people who exist in any workplace, namely, Creators, Paper PPL, Muddler, and Slogger. To know about each one of them and find one where you belong, you need to read this one.

Although the book very specifically mentions it is about classifying the workers in any organisation based on certain qualities, I think it can help you with people in any walk of your life.

You might like to wander through a few artistic journals — they’re full of sparks and surprises.
