I guess that's probably where all the questions are, thank you. I admit I've never even notice its existence!

Another one by the same author, which I heartily recommend, is "The Ideal Team Player". Read it many years ago, and I still use it as a basic framework when I interview candidates (in a nutshell, you want someone humble, hungry, and smart).

I personally wouldn't recommend "Death by Meeting", though. Maybe it's just because it didn't resonate much with me, so YMMV.

I usually take (half seriously) Machiavelli's view: luck does play a role, but it's not the biggest factor and the rest is up to you.

So, focus on what you can control, and luck should impact the result less.
