Featured Book: Radical Careering by Sally Hogshead
Do you have a career worth loving? Do you cringe at the idea of a mindless job spent shuffling papers and sneaking out at 4:59? Do you want joy and meaning from work? Do you want to kickstart momentum, attack bigger possibilities and get excited about Monday mornings? If so, welcome. You're among friends.
Radical Careering doesn't function like the usual career book. Don't just read this book. Use it.
Careering: Careering is the profound, and glorious, and terrifying, and absurdly difficult but infinitely rewarding process of transforming your current self into your ultimate self.
Jeannette's Rec:
My friend Eric told me about this book when I was visiting a friend in Louisville. He told me to buy the book before I got on the airplane to come home the following day. He guaranteed that it would be a "quick read" and that it was "really, really, really cool."
His raving was right on the money.
When I got to the airport, I made a beeline for the airport bookstore, and I saw the bold black, red and white cover, sitting atop a sign that read "#2" among the business bestsellers. I'd read the thing from cover to cover by the time the airplane touched down at the XNA airport.
The author Sally Hogshead is insightful, clever and creative--a real self-starter with a good sense of humor and the kind of determination that comes only from picking oneself up time and again despite an onslaught of adversity.
The book is set up in a magazine-type format with helpful Dummies-like icons and with eyecatching photography and professional graphics--guaranteed to hold the attention of even the most easily distracted.
The book also includes great information from the Radical 1000 Research Study, a survey that polled 1000 active, lively "careerists" on present-day attitudes, priorities and beliefs of professionals like you and me.
Get ready to take on Sally's hard-earned "radical truths" along with Action ("caffeinated activities to put truths into action"), Insight ("Expert tips, insider ideas and fresh-squeezed innovation") and Inspiration ("encouragement with just a hint of butt-kicking").
It's a fun read, and I hope you enjoy it. Click below to order your copy today.
