Shifting Gears: How to Master Career Change and Find the Work that's Right for You
This book addresses the fact that most people will have several career changes in the decades ahead. These changes can be self-initiated, such as a move from industry into one's own business, or can be imposed as a result of downsizing or merger.

This process includes understanding individual work styles, identifying the triggers of change, getting stuck, dealing with barriers to change, and defining career paths. Throughout the book, short stories of successful career transitions are discussed. Particularly timely in today's corporate climate, this book is highly recommended for all general collections.
