Product Description

Product Description

Competition is intense, talent is rife and jobs are never secure.

Whether you’re going after your first job, dream job or want to rise to the dizzy heights of success with your current or future employer, learn how you can be the most wanted employee around.

Based on a life-time of experience working in the best companies around, David Freemantle gives you 50 ways to become the person everyone wants in their organisation:

  • Use the power of influence to make any situation work for you
  • Discover how to become instantly likeable
  • Evolve and grow so you always have the edge

Some examples from Wanted:

- demonstrates the importance of ‘falling in love’ with the work you do. People in love with their work are more likely to be ‘wanted’ than people who hate their work

- stresses the importance of ‘going mad’ (i.e. going and ‘Making A Difference’) and thus developing the skills and mindset to differentiate yourself as an individual

- focuses on ‘being yourself’ and not being what someone else wants you to be. This relates to ambition, principles and behaviour

From the Back Cover

Competition is intense, talent is rife and jobs are never secure.

Whether you’re going after your first job, dream job or want to rise to the dizzy heights of success with your current or future employer, learn how you can become the most wanted employee around.

Based on a life-time of experience working in the best companies around, David Freemantle gives you 50 ways to become the person everyone wants in their organisation:

  • Become so good at your job that everyone else is second best compared with your best
  • Discover the secrets that ensure you are hired, promoted and retained for any role
  • Sharpen your talents, experiences and learning to ensure you always have a competitive edge

Follow David’s advice and you’ll become more than “wanted” – you’ll be more effective and your organisation will be much more successful. So, find the job you love and be successful!

Format:Paperback
This book might help you to become the most wanted employee around, as it claims on the cover, but if you do even a small proportion of the things suggested, it will certainly enrich your life. The 50 recommendations in the contents alone form a litany of good advice, and in the text David Freemantle expands the how and why for each, finishing each section with some practical tips. Flicking through Wanted alone is inspirational, and following through on a fraction of the tips is likely to make a marked impact on not only your performance at work, but outside the office too.

By S. Muir
Format:Paperback
I bought this book in the airport when flying to Geneva a couple of weeks ago for something to get my brain working and excited about tackling tasks ahead. It worked a treat.

The 50 Chapters that were put together were so uplifting and motivational, I wanted there to be more than 50. This is obviously compiled from years of experience and was great to have some one at the top of the game, pass it on to those seeking success.

Every chapter made complete sense, with tips and tasks throughout and with references to other books and authors included. It made me feel that I was more in the know than those that hadn't bought David Freemantle's inspiring publication.

I read it front to back and keep flicking through it most days to read my favourite chapters, in any order...just to inspire me. A book that every one should at home, in the office or on the move.

Review of Wanted 3 Oct 2009
Format:Paperback
Thought the book was just great - a work of real wisdom - the bite sized approach is ideal. Sure, some of it might be quite obvious, but is quiet surprising how often we miss the obvious and it never harms to reflect, even if you just pick up a couple of things. The book is worth its weight in gold. If you get nothing out of it that's fine - the good news would be that your clearly employee of the year!
