Product Description
Review
"... a really useful tool when, more than ever before, you are responsible for your own employability."
- Business Executive
Product Description
There are several routes to senior management. But only one of them ensures that you'll be successful when you get there. Understanding and following that route will help you rise through the ranks faster, give you a competitive advantage every step of the way, and make you a success when you get that coveted senior position.
Interestingly most successful senior executives don't even realise the route they followed or the shift they made along the way, until they are questioned about it. When prompted, they will tell you that there was a shift in their thinking, and that was the turning point in their career.
- So there is a shift that has to occur in you, for you to progress and succeed at each level in the corporate hierarchy. This is the first book to reveal what that shift is, and how you make it happen in yourself, before explaining how you then need to communicate this changed thinking to the world around you.
The shift starts in your thinking but it is reflected in what you say, what you do and how you behave and must therefore be very visible to everyone you work with - especially those who have the power to single you out for promotion at every stage.- To become a fast track candidate you have to know and understand the fast track formula. Are you ready for the fast track?

I was lucky enough to be given a copy of this book after a learning experience that I wouldn't really wish on anyone....
Reading this book I experienced a lot of those awful blood chilling moments that often occur when the penny drops; well at least that's how I react to these moments of self realisation.
Needless to say this book has enabled me to put my experience behind me and build on it; whilst recognising the mistakes I made, and being that little bit smarter to avoid the same beartraps.
Anyway, as not all of us can afford our own career coach to guide us through the minefield that is the modern working environment I would strongly recommend this book as an essential read.
Anyone who has ambitions to follow a career path where they are in control could not wish to find a better guide.

Some pretty decent advice that is mostly usable and straightforward.
The book is pretty short so it isn't always as detailed as I might have wanted.
There isn't much fluff in this book and I have found actually implemented a few of the suggestions that the book makes.
