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.
An enjoyable and refreshing take on major trends and changes that leaders must successfully embrace if they are to ensure that they succeed in their career. This book provides thought-provoking insights, research and advice that all leaders should actively consider. -- Helen Gordon, Chief Executive, Science Council This book blends scholarly research and practice-based insights to force a rethink of what ongoing social shifts, enterprise innovations and altering societal values imply for future careers. -- Alnoor Bhimani, Professor of Management Accounting & Director of South Asia Centre, London School of Economics The authors set out a compelling vision for a more people-centred, impact-led approach to navigate the ' next normal' . So much in here resonated with me, and has been missing from other leadership books. -- Gwen Hines, CEO, Save the Children UK An inspiring and highly energising read which enables us to take stock of where we are, and where we want to go in our careers. -- Erem Kassim-Lakha, Partner, McKinsey & Company
