Seven Steps to a Rewarding Transitional Career (Paperback)

This tough job market has evolved from the current global financial sector melt down and the resulting economic restructuring, and is likely to continue for a number of years. To thrive in it, one must first recognize that on-going career transitions will be more prevalent. Having a solid understanding of what you have to offer and how and where to market your services will give you a decided advantage in the increasingly competitive race for work opportunities. Managing the transition process from one engagement to another becomes a significant effort in itself. ""A Transitional Career"", as used in this book, refers to a work-life cycle incorporating a series of job engagements, which may be part-time or full-time, often separated by periods of non-paid activity. Job engagements may last for hours, days, weeks or months and may be consecutive or concurrent. ""Pursuing a Transitional Career"" requires a different perspective on searching for a job engagement than the more traditional approach of seeking a long term job commitment. As you will see in ""Seven Steps"", seeking new job engagements is a continuous effort. I wrote this workbook as a guide, taking the role of a personal coach to you, the reader. ""A Transitional Career"" can be very rewarding. This work-life cycle alternative has attracted management consultants, independent contractors and other professional service providers for decades. The ""Seven Steps"" workbook has been designed to help people who are: in job transition and want to find work; working but are concerned about their future career; interested in exploring consulting or contracting work; retired but need additional income; and, entering the work place for the first time.
