Hank Adler tackles one of the most critical topics in our work lives: how to be successful in that first job. Whether it be when to use or when not to use a Smartphone or how to make sure the receptionist is your friend rather than a stranger or enemy, Hank Adler provides a plethora of ideas for recent graduates in their first post graduation job. This advice, put forth in a readable and enjoyable style is equally relevant to supervisors and parents with respect to delivering helpful advice to recent graduates (and maybe not so recent graduates). As a former partner in an international accounting firm, a former school board president and now a veteran college professor, Adler is in a unique position to provide advice to recent graduates. He mentored first year graduates for decades when he was an accounting firm partner and today, he helps prepare college graduates for their first post graduate business job. In You Don't Have To Be Smart To Own A Smartphone, Adler addresses the cultural issues and day to day expectations of employers versus the modern life experiences of recent graduates. He explains how the cultural expectations of supervisors are different because they entered the work force before it was possible or anticipated that they would have a Smartphone embedded in their palm. Through a specific experience, he demonstrates with great humor how effective multi-tasking while texting on a Smartphone is an oxymoron. From Smartphone etiquette to understanding how damaging it is to complain to colleagues about how hard one is working to avoiding being part of the gossip community to explaining what it takes to be interesting to bosses and clients, You Don't Have To Be Smart To Own A Smartphone is the best first job primer written in the last twenty years. It is timely, it is interesting and Adler's story telling puts mistakes he has made into a context that will be useful to every reader. This is a book that will enhance careers.
