This guide is the first step toward a more rewarding life through exercises and guided reflection. It can be used to choose a Military Occupation Specialty (MOS) and separations, College degree major and as a college guide, avenue for self-employment, become an entrepreneur, navigate new business enterprises, overcome life obstacles and depression, job hunt, find yourself (self-help), resumes, interviewing & confidence building, knowing and pushing your limits, goal setting and understanding the reasons behind them, becoming a more positive person, retirement planning and so much more. The purpose for this guide is to inspire. Not for me to inspire you, but for you to inspire yourself. To find a direction to head towards, and the motivation to do so. By the end of this guide it is my goal for you to have a clear understanding of what career you want during your pursuit of happiness. You may be a high school student, college student, or already in the work force. You may have children, responsibilities, and maybe even reasons you are telling yourself you cannot make a change to find the career you deserve to have. This is not the case. We all have options - sometimes it's the vast sea of options we have that can debilitate us from deciding a direction to go. Fear not, we're going to "weigh" these options on the scale of life. You may be reading this description deciding if this book is right for you. I am proof that this guide works, and the time taken to follow this steppingstone is worth every second. It is not my intention to put you inside my strange head, but to help you use my research and planning skills in your own mind to find your own North Star. So, who am I? Some "young buck" from New York trying to give everybody advice? Negative ghost rider. I have done well, but I'm not the type of person to flaunt it or enjoy talking about it. I am grateful for what I have and may be the happiest person alive. One of my goals is to help others rise to their potential -by helping them find what direction that potential may be best pointed. I simply want to show you how I bought my first investment house and $20,000 motor home at 22 and finished my bachelor's at 23 while Active Duty in the Marine Corps. How I became my franchises' "youngest franchisee ever" at 24, bought my second house, first commercial property, started two more businesses...and so much more through the years. Now, do I promise you will make your first $1,000,000 before 30 and it will be easy? Nope. Not every career is for everyone, hence this guide. If money is your direct objective, strap in; while this guide is not for becoming rich, it may help you find the career you deserve to get you there. This guide will require you to develop a vow to yourself and to spend real, true, American blood, sweat and tears to complete it. Remember, I spent 6 years on and off writing this guide. Determination is going to be needed. Let's use a clear-cut, kiln dried, hog tied method to get you where you want to be, and then create a plan to make it so. Take this journey step by step, chapter by chapter and remove interruptions and distractions when you do so. When an idea or thought pops in your head put it on my copyrighted chart included in this guide. There are many guides, but THIS ONE IS YOURS!

This timely guide explains how businesses can effectively integrate and coordinate career and succession planning programs to meet the personnel demands of the future. Drawing on their experience and expertise with workforce development, the authors of this book based its content on a single but important premise.

The book presents a systematic approach through which businesses can integrate and coordinate career planning and succession planning programs. Part One makes the business case for moving beyond segregated career and succession planning and shows why they must be integrated. Part Two offers foundations for integration, while Part Three outlines the strategies that can make integration a reality. Part Four addresses the future of career development and succession planning. Other topics include the future of organizational infrastructure and the implications of a diverse workforce. Employee engagement and leadership development are also explored.

The Corporate Lattice by Cathleen Benko,Molly Anderson Pdf

With roots planted firmly in the industrial age, the corporate ladder has been the metaphor used to describe the prevailing one-size-fits-all model for success. At its heart, the ladder is derived from inflexible, hierarchical, organization models in which prestige, individual rewards, information flow, power and influence are tied to the rung each employee occupies. Yet the workplace as we know it is in transition -- evolving away from the linear, one-size-fits-all model of the corporate ladder toward a multidimensional approach that Cathy Benko calls the corporate lattice. This book will serve to widen an organization's strategic lens, representing a fundamentally new way to work and run a company. It offers a framework to help senior leaders and HR directors harness the talent in their company in a way that provides a strategic advantage, not only for recruiting but also for achieving and maintain better individual performance. In the bestselling book Mass Career Customization (Harvard Business Press/2007), Cathy Benko and Deloitte provided the breakthrough MCC dashboard for understanding the important variables of individual employees' career-life profiles, but she also coined a new metaphor -- the corporate lattice -- as a way to think about the changed career landscape. This book delves much deeper into the power of the lattice for organizations, fully exploring its contours and applying it to real-life practice throughout a company. It explores how the corporate lattice model creates value by: 1. Ensuring a flow of talent into and through the organization. 2. Increasing the efficiency of and return on organizational investments. 3. Improving financial and operating results through greater employee engagement. The three-part framework of the book presents specific ways managers and organizations can use The Corporate Lattice to manage talent, measure results, collaborate across teams, engage employees, and reor"

A Guide for the Idealist by Richard Willson Pdf

A Guide for the Idealist is a must for young professionals seeking to put their idealism to work. Speaking to urban and regional planners and those in related fields, the book provides tools for the reader to make good choices, practice effectively, and find meaning in planning work. Built around concepts of idealism and realism, the book takes on the gap between the expectations and the constraints of practice. How to make an impact? How to decide when to compromise and when to fight for a core value? The book advises on career "launching" issues: doubt, decision-making, assessing types of work and work settings, and career planning. Then it explains principled adaptability as professional style. Subsequent chapters address early-practice issues: being right, avoiding wrong, navigating managers, organizations and teams, working with mentors, and understanding the career journey. Underpinning these dimensions is a call for planners to reflect on what they are doing as they are doing it. The advice provided is based on the experience of a planning professor who has also practiced planning throughout his career. The book includes personal anecdotes from the author and other planners about how they launched and managed their careers, and discussion/reflection questions for the reader to consider.
