I’ve always believed in the “no asshole rule,” though it isn’t always easy to state in polite company. Still, there is no better way, in one sentence, to sum up a good management practice.

Now there is a book of that title, and Guy Kawasaki has a book review.

I’ve known a couple of executives in my past who would benefit from such a book. Of course, the people who really need 224 pages on this topic are the ones least likely to get the point. If you don’t get the rule in one sentence, a book isn’t going to help.
