Pat Scudamore

Changing careers just got easier
Done properly however a change of career can be a rewarding and exhilarating experience and one you should never shrink from particularly if the alternative is underachieving stagnating in a dead-end job or doing work you no longer find interesting. This book teaches you all you need to know about crossing the bridge from one careerto another.

This book is broken down into seven short lessons one for each day of the week. It starts by putting your ideas to the test to see whether they are viable or not. Then if they are it goes on to show you what you need to do to move your plan from an outline in your head to a reality. Sometimes the challenges you'll face will be tough ones but throughout the book you'll find practical advice and tips to help you when you get stuckand need to find a way forward.
