"Imagine a workplace where every employee is aware of the things they do - or fail to - that prevent them from being more productive and valuable. Imagine a company where everyone speaks openly and honestly about their weaknesses and are committed to strengthening and overcoming them. Imagine an environment where colleagues help each other become more efficient and less disruptive by speaking the truth about what detracts from the team's effort and objectives. Imagine a place where the firm's most talented employees know exactly what they need to do to attain a leadership position. This is no fantasy workplace, it can be your business if you listen to Joseph Azelby and Robert Azelby.

Great career advice s.

Wish I had read this both during college. There are so many great information in this book about career that everyone who reads it will find something useful. This book will show you how to find out what people/co-workers' perceptions ( "but") of you are and how you can fix the ones that should be fixed.

Great Book with Sound Advice

21 June 2013 - Published on Amazon.com

This book provides a blueprint for anyone at any age. The advice can be used immediately after you finish this book. Joe and Bob Azelby provide you examples of people we deal with in everyday life, and how NOT to become one of them. If any book were given the title "Personal Life Coach" this book is the one. I believe this book should be on bookshelf of business leaders, human resources directors, and coaches.

You Need to Read this Book!

31 August 2013 - Published on Amazon.com

Kiss Your But Good-Bye was the most useful personal development book I have read. It is funny, an easy read and memorable. I am still laughing at some of the stories. The beauty and genius of the book is that the concepts described can be readily used to improve your staff, yourself and the company as a whole. While most business books recognize that the most valuable asset in a company is its people, I have not read any that explain in such a straightforward way how to improve people’s effectiveness and worth. I highly recommend this book to anyone who wants to remove the factors which hold them back in business world or help others to succeed. What you learn will make work and life more enjoyable and profitable.

Insightful and actionable advice for career advancement – An easy, fun and important book

20 July 2015 - Published on Amazon.com

Verified Purchase

This book helped me become more self-aware of how to advance quicker in my career. The multiple examples in the book of traits that keep people back from getting promoted is always supplemented with actionable helpful suggestions on how to minimize or improve them. The Azelby brothers wrote it in a fun way with plenty of analogies, personal anecdotes and references to famous movie scenes bringing the points home. Well worth the read!
