"Futureproof Your Career provides original and practical guidance for improving your career and taking full advantage of opportunities for progression. It places a major focus on the changing business, economic and technological landscape, and the new challenges this presents for job retention and career progression. With the impact of the pandemic, the ongoing fourth industrial revolution, the broadening awareness of institutionalized discrimination and the concerns around an economic recession, it is almost an understatement to say that we're entering a 'new normal' in which working patterns and career trajectories have irreversibly changed. Futureproof Your Career provides key insights into how these changes will impact the essential functions and roles within organizations and how, with a greater awareness of how these changes are unfolding, readers will be able to develop a stronger awareness of new opportunities and will be better prepared to safeguard their jobs and bolster their career in this new landscape. From two leading academics, this is both a practical guide to success and an enlightening insight into the future of work. It draws upon both the authors' academic research and an international array of case studies and interviews to provide engaging and illuminating insights that will help any professional with their career - whether they're a C-suite executive or just starting out"--Publisher's description. |
