Build for tomorrow : an action plan for embracing change, adapting fast, and future-proofing your career / by Feifer, Jason,author.;
The moments of greatest change can also be the moments of greatest opportunity. Adapt more quickly and use the power of change to your advantage with this guide from the editor in chief of Entrepreneur magazine and host of the BuildforTomorrow podcast. We experience change in four phases. The first is panic. Then we adapt. Then we find a new normal. And then, finally, we reach the phase we could not have imagined in the beginning, the moment when we realize that we wouldn't go back. Build for Tomorrow is designed to accelerate that process--to help you lessen your panic, adapt faster, define the new normal, and thrive going forward. And it arrives as we all, in some way, have felt a shift in our lives. The pandemic forced a moment of collective change, and we are still being forced to make new plans and adjustments to our lives, families, and careers. Many of us will never go back, continuing to work from home, demanding higher wages, or starting new businesses. To help people along this journey, Entrepreneur magazine editor in chief Jason Feifer offers stories, lessons, and concrete exercises from the most potent sources of change in our world. He speaks to the world's most successful changemakers--from global celebrities like Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson and Maria Sharapova to innovative CEOs and Main Street heroes--to learn how they decide what to protect, what to discard, and how to move forward without fear. He also draws lessons from history, looking at how massive changes across time can help us better understand the opportunities of today.For example, he finds guidance for our post-pandemic realities inside the power shifts that occurred after the Bubonic Plague, and he reveals how the history of innovations like the elevator and even the teddy bear can teach anyone to be more forward-thinking. We cannot anticipate tomorrow's needs, but it shouldn't take a crisis to push usforward. This book will show you how to make change on your own terms.

Career forward : strategies from women who've made it / by Puma, Grace,author.; Shi, Christiana Smith,author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index.In 'Career Forward', former PepsiCo COO Grace Puma and former Nike President of Consumer Direct Christiana Smith Shi offer a groundbreaking, empowering guide for women that shows how to prioritize a career path, build professional value, and enjoy a full life both in and out of the workplace. At a time when many long-held workplace structures and beliefs are changing, "Career Forward" is a beacon. Drawing on decades of experience reaching the top of Fortune 500 companies, the authors show women how to get paid what they're worth, navigate the shifts that occur in any company, and build a leadership identity. The authors challenge negative stereotypes about female ambition and urge women to be purposeful, follow their dreams, and seize the chance to lead "big" lives. Partly, the secret is to focus on career first and job second. More rewarding even than chasing a job title or salary bump is staying on a long-range career path that leads to success. Packed with personal anecdotes and wisdom, and featuring quizzes and checklists for self-evaluation, "Career Forward" provides a wealth of lessons, including the value of thinking of yourself as a "growth stock" and what it means to live a well-rounded 360-degree life. To anyone who wonders whether working hard is really worth it, Puma and Smith Shi emphatically answer "yes," because the rewards will far outweigh the effort.
