Industry Reviews
"A straightforward guide to success that deserves a prime spot on the bookshelves of career women aspiring to reach the highest corporate ranks."
--Kirkus Reviews
"When I read Susan Packard's Ten Rules of Gamesmanship, I found many relatable truths. In our family we did not list them as 'rules' but we learned by my mother's example. Difficult balancing acts, like being gracious while staying cool, and showing grit while valuing being likeable to others, and if you fail, learn from it and try again. I live many of Packard's 'rules of gamesmanship' through my mother's wise examples."
--Rachael Ray
