The Unwritten Rules of Work
Career Guide

The Unwritten Rules of Work is a practical guide for young professionals in India who are in the first few years of their careers.

It covers the things that most people are not formally taught at work, but are still expected to understand.

You will learn how to become more reliable, work better with your manager, handle problems early, disagree respectfully, make your work visible, understand promotions, make better career decisions, and use AI without losing your own judgement.

The guide includes 24 simple rules, practical workplace examples, and research-backed ideas that you can apply immediately.

This is not a motivational book. It is designed to help you understand how work actually works.

A note on how this was created: This product combines my own observations and thinking with published research from credible sources. I also used AI tools to support research, synthesis, and drafting. The final selection of ideas, interpretation, examples, and practical takeaways are my own.

I had the privilege of speaking with Somil Makhija recently, and it was truly inspiring. In just one conversation, he provided immense clarity on several fronts—be it career direction, the importance of building a strong personal story, or practical steps like CAT/GMAT prep, developing a reading habit, or seeking mentorship. What truly stood out was not just the depth of his knowledge, but the kindness and patience with which he shared it. It felt less like a career discussion and more like a mentorship session—something that left a lasting impression on me. Somil is someone who not only understands the consulting space deeply but also genuinely cares about guiding aspiring professionals. I'm incredibly grateful for his time and insights.
