Cathy Goodwin's Definite Dozen Career Change Books

The Cathy Goodwin Branch of Amazon.Com

Here are  my all-time favorite career books.

  If you're wondering why conventional career counseling doesn't usually work, here's the book you need. Based on solid research with real midlife career-changers.
  Best life planning guide i've sen in a long time. Truly inspirational. It's not pie in the sky or wishful thinking. It's about really making things happen - realistically. Among the tidbits: "When you're the underdog, change the game;" and, "You can have infinite dreams but you have to choose your priorities."
  Every time I re-read Jarow's gentle best-seller, I get new ideas and insights.
  Are you riding a dead horse? Sills offers realistic, effective guidance to finding a lively replacement. Don't look for airy platitudes here. She's not afraid to use the D word -- discipline. Sills sounds more like a coach than a therapist -- but no matter. I'm not aware of any other book that addresses this increasingly important topic.
  Excellent advice on careers and emotions. Be able to live without your job. Unhappiness requires courage to change, but living with unhappiness cam help us become brave enough to change. Commonsense meets wisdom and inspiration.
  First impressions count. Learn how to make the most of encounters with business and relationship partners. Entertaining as well as immensely practical.
  One of the most intelligent, insightful books about fear and other parts of life. No quick fixes, no jargon, no glitz. Solid wisdom based on the author's life experience. Perfect gift for a friend in transition (and you, too).
  Often my clients are reluctant to acknowledge their positive qualities, let alone flaunt them. Whether you're changing jobs, strategeizing for promotion, or promoting your business, you need to present your strengths -- not back off in modesty. Here you'll learn how to brag professionally.
  A realistic look at career strategies for those who have had a successful corporate track record. Read before you need to act.
  Starting a business after living the corporate life? One of the few books that (in my opinion) combines genuine optimism with realistic guidance.
  Based on the author's own "second act" and stories of those he coaches and supports. Second on "what could I do next" is especially valuable.
  How to take proactive steps to maintain power and avoid being in a one-down position in the world of work. The section on networking is especially valuable.
