Enduring Strategies For Career Success
Helping Leaders Grow Their Career in a Changing World of Work
This is a book to help leaders create their own career possibilities in a changing world of work.
About the Book
Hi, I’m Al! Over the past 15 years, I’ve helped leaders and organizations build and implement strategies for navigating a world of work that is constantly changing. I’ve also spent thousands of hours talking to leaders about navigating their careers.
This book provides specific tools, practices, and strategies that can help you take control of your career. It’s designed to guide you toward success on your own terms.
Instead of giving you all the answers (because everyone’s career journey is unique), it offers practical steps that, when followed with purpose, can lead to meaningful opportunities and outcomes.
Think of it as an operating system for managing your career in a more strategic and intentional way.
