How is your book helping others?
My book tackles the issue of career readiness. The bridge from education to the workforce is broken. Schools are not preparing the students for the workforce and industry is complaining but not helping. Students are drowning in debt and are confused and depressed. My book offers students suggestions on workforce preparation. Since I did not prepare, I did not enjoy my profession so I inform the students on the way I should have prepared which I learned in 30+ years in industry. To add, the students and educations can read about 101 careers by the people that worked them. From CEO to actuary to accountant and so many more. Chapters are divided into Hollands Occupational Themes.
Also, it's a fun and easy read. Career Readiness is an imperative subject and many of the books are dry so students avoid and end up getting career advice from social media. My book received endorsements from educators of Stanford, Harvard, UMass, BU, Northeastern and many more. Thank you.
