Publisher's Note
Devoid of real job security, today's working environment can be a scary place. But the good news is that, with its emphasis on freedom and flexibility, the new economy also provides individuals with incredible opportunities for self-experimentation and expansion into different roles. In this powerfully candid work, acclaimed career counselor Barbara Moses shows individuals and managers how they can profit from future work trends. She offers professionals clear advice on how to maintain self-authenticity in a shifting career landscape-how to work for "Me, Inc."--and gives managers concrete suggestions for leading the organizations of today and tomorrow. It's a solid guide that offers inspiration and sound ideas for finding liberation, satisfaction, and success in an uncertain world.
Industry reviews

As today's workers are all too painfully aware, downsizing, takeovers, and technological changes have made job security a thing of the past. But there is a bright side to this new reality. Released from the pressure to conform to keep our jobs, we are free to take on the roles that really suit us and seek out personal fulfillment rather than exhaust ourselves striving for the proverbial brass ring. In this book, career expert and best-selling author Barbara Moses decodes the rules of the new workplace-what she calls Temp World-and shows how we can use them to take charge of our own careers. Moses identifies six types of contemporary workers-including "careerists" who thrive on the pressure of the rat race and "personal developers" who cherish learning and professional growth. She helps individuals decide which type they are, what they want out of their careers, and how they're most likely to succeed. She gives managers a guide to the new employment contract and ten strategies for managing the new workers. She even gives parents tips for career-proofing their children. In Temp World, where employment is ultimately transitory, key to survival is developing a portable set of skills that can be used in a succession of different assignments. In her trademark tell-it-like-it-is fashion, Moses shows readers how to develop those skills, seek new challenges, identify new opportunities, and nurture the self-confidence necessary to maintain enthusiasm during times of transition. Peppered with anecdotes from years Moses spent consulting for companies including Levi Strauss, Lucent Technologies, and PricewaterhouseCoopers, The Good News About Careers is full of frank advice and practicalstrategies for finding liberation, satisfaction, and success in an uncertain world.
