What Would Machiavelli Do?: The Ends Justify the Meanness
Autor Stanley Bingen Limba Engleză Paperback – 6 feb 2006
Machiavellians may not get to heaven, but on earth they have a definite edge on the competition. In this pithy and discretely vicious guide, Stanley Bing shows how the Florentine master statesman and political thinker would handle today’s myriad corporate challenges, seize the future by the throat, and make it cough up money, power, and superior office space. So, what exactly would Machiavelli do?
- He would exploit himself only slightly less than he exploits others.
- He would be in love with his destiny.
- He would, for the most part, be a paranoid freak.
- He would always be at war.
- He would cultivate a few well-loved enemies.
- He would have a couple of good friends, too.
- He would acquire his neighbor.
- He would think BIG.
- He would move forward like a great shark, eating as he goes.
- And much, much more.

What Would Machiavelli Do?
- He would feast on other people's discord
- He wouldn't exactly seek the company of ass-kissers and bimbos, but he wouldn't reject them out of hand either
- He would realize that loving yourself means never having to say you're sorry
- He would kill people, but only if he could feel good about himself afterward
- He would establish and maintain a psychotic level of control
- He would use other people's opinions to sell his book!
