We live in uncertain times filled with anxiety, fear, and confusion. This book sheds light and hope by providing a clear blueprint for navigating career transitions in a way that feels manageable and achievable, especially with the rise of AI and changing workforce demands.
Readers will purchase this book because it offers a step-by-step guide to career pivoting based on rigorous research with successful career pivoters and those actively seeking change. Unlike theoretical approaches, it’s a practical “how-to” guide written in an engaging, accessible format through personal stories and expert insights from various fields.
The book uses a journey metaphor (the “Pivot-Quest”) that breaks down an overwhelming process into exciting, manageable steps. This approach helps readers see career pivoting not as a terrifying leap but as an expedition with clear waypoints, making it both practical and emotionally resonant.
The book is designed to be read for a few minutes daily, followed by short exercises. The latter can be done online (at a specific site) or on a piece of paper.
