No reviews yetAn audit can balance the books. It cannot always explain the people.
Across nearly three decades in corporate life, Sharanga Senanayake found office politics, quick thinking, costly mistakes and unexpected kindness everywhere he worked. These short, firsthand stories turn those encounters into humour and practical lessons.
From a manager's inspired answer during a 5S inspection to the quiet resilience of an office cleaner, The Corporate Ball Game looks beyond job titles to the people keeping a business moving.
Office politics, with the names on the doors
Audits, buying offices, monthly accounts, management instructions and the everyday negotiations between departments: a working life told through the moments that stayed with the author.
A short story. A lesson that stays.
Read in small sittings. The anecdotes move from thinking on your feet and getting the job right the first time to teamwork, adversity and judging people beyond their qualifications.
For anyone who has worked inside a company
A book for auditors, accountants, managers and employees who recognise that the human side of a business rarely fits into a spreadsheet.
