Management books

He forgot about the sixth F there: a huge Finheritance.
Do capitalists actually follow the tips in these books? If they do, it is very helpful to read these kinds of management guide books since it shows what their tactics are. Hell these books are probably more useful to read than what bourgeois economists write, at least you learn 1501 methods that are actually used in the real world instead of the propaganda form the church of capital.
OP's book is targeted at lucky porkies or porky's failsons who inherit the business. The smarter porkies (or the smart people they hire) will read more serious stuff like this I guess
If you wanna see behind the curtain at this crazy bullshit, I recommend the 'Don Beveridge' episode of Redlettermedia.

WEEEE NEED BAGELS!

It's an extremely repetitive collection of hundreds of anecdotes from really existing companies, which are always named. I'm pretty sure that some managers at Amazon have read it because ideas like tracking who isn't ill for X years and rewarding that with the opportunity to brunch with some NPC managers plus a voucher worth a pathetic sum is typical of the shit proposed in it.
Hah, this just reminded me of a sales job where I was told if we did well that quarter the boss would take us to a Japanese steak house. I just thought "why the fuck would being forced to hang out with these dicks outside of work hours be considered a reward rather than a punishment?" Unfortunately I didnt last long enough to receive my chicken dinner.
This is entirely correct, BTW. If you are doing something wrong, or if there is an easier way to do it, comrades should let each other know. If you see someone doing something inefficiently and you know a trick that will save them a bunch of time, don't keep that to yourself but rather share it with your comrade. As Marxists, we should constantly be evaluating our actions how they affect the world around us, so let your comrades criticize you and don't shy away from criticizing your comrades.
