Many soon-to-be graduates are worried about their future. They stress about whether they’ll find a job, if it will be fulfilling, whether they will earn enough to pay off their student loans, and whether they will fail and disappoint their families. Young people need to learn many things that colleges don’t teach, including how to behave professionally, how to collaborate, how to be life-long learners, and how to be resourceful, resilient, and ethical. This book will teach students the things they need to succeed in the real world, such as how to organize a job search, how to ace job interviews, how to manage time effectively, how to manage and reduce stress, how to be an effective leader, how to run a meeting well, how to survive a bad performance review, how to become a powerful speaker, how to network, and many other skills that are the keys to success and fulfillment.
Industry Reviews
Chris Palmer has written a fabulous must-have for anyone graduating, or embarking on their next steps: He manages to entertain, while providing not only practical tips for making important decisions, but a profoundly important moral framework for navigating the modern world. An inspiring contribution for this generation’s leaders-to-be.
