The books impact is best asserted in a critique written by a business executive: “This riveting non-fiction work deals with how corporations function, how the players treat each other and how one really climbs the corporate ladder. Rychkun’s question How’s Your AQ Today? sets the stage for a great read. No one is exempt from Rychkun’s inky dagger as he graphically tells us why many businesses and business people suffocate and lose their humanity.

With his telltale scenarios, cartoons, and some real-life corporate experiences, Rychkun informs and entertains us while he bares the backside of the corporate world. A must read.” Jim Green, CEO Challenge Entertainment Corp, Jan 2004
