This book challenges the outdated belief that success is guaranteed by social skills and a college degree by exposing how meritocracy commonly fails in real life. Drawing on the author's professional experiences, it highlights how proactive and problem-solving tactics rarely result in outcomes, exposing societal hypocrisy and the manipulation of accepted standards. While exploring social, political, and cultural distinctions around the world, the book highlights how these problems are present everywhere. It promotes a critical assessment of leadership and social values and is aimed at people who have fulfilled society's expectations but yet feel unfulfilled.
