Keeping Your Career on Track

ebook
Career derailment, found at all organizational levels in the workplace, is under-documented. Most books examining how careers go off track deal with abstract concepts and focus only on top executives. This book defines 99 potentially career-ending pitfalls, illustrated with real-world examples, and offers specific advice to employees at all levels in business, nonprofit, military, government and other organizations. Topics include the consequences of power and pleasing, the illusion of immunity, meeting behavior, corrective feedback, ineffective image, nonverbal behavior, self-serving analysis and the perception of management as a science. Perspectives are provided on avoiding the indirect hazards of working with superiors or subordinates who may be on the path to derailment. A reader self-assessment is included.
