Answer 3

The best way is a chemical stripper.  However, I must warn you that a lot of modern office furniture has catalyzed or 2K finishes that resist most known strippers.  Very tough, but bulletproof.   These finishes are also known for resisting top coats, which is one possible cause of peeling.  Another is improper preparation or wrong choice of paint.

Try it first in an obscure spot before starting on the middle of the desktop.

ack - you'll most likely need to sand the entire thing down and restain it. There are chemicals you can get to do this, but they are highly toxic and I would not recommend going that route.
