Ratings and reviews

It's almost as if the authors are reading my mind because the many challenges shared in GREAT ADVICE mirror the very same issues I face at work and in life. Thanks David and Handi for the great advice and for letting me know that I am not alone!

I first met David Wee on Linkedin. He is from Singapore. I follow his posts on Linkedin. I admire his ability to post daily. And I love to learn from him. In different ways. For one, there is his career. He knows what paths lead to success for employees in a company. How you learn. How to behave towards employees and superiors. And how to handle private life and career. Together with Handi Kurniavan he has put all this together in this book. Absolutely recommendable!

David, I just spent the last hour reading your book. And I must say, you and Handi have got a true gem of a book in your hands. The lessons are short, sharp and succinct - by far the best self-help book I've read in a while. Although I could identify myself in at least 80% of what you've written, I still wished I had this book when I was working my ass up the corporate ladder!! I wished I could write like you guys! Fantastic job!
