About this listen
An accessible and approachable guide to work and careers from a trusted and authoritative source, looking at the new way of working in a post-pandemic world, no matter what stage of your career you’re at.
Whether you’re the boss, the deputy or on your way up, the way we’re working in a post-pandemic world is forever changed. This is a book about how to make working work for you, packed with expert analysis and ahead-of-the-curve workplace trends and the examining old habits we need to lose. Bringing in expert opinion and personal experiences, there's key takeaways summarised at the end of each chapter.
This modern guide can be used by everyone – both employed and self-employed. The book is split into two sections – Staff and Managers. This works for both groups, as most people are managed and/or aspire to be higher up and so can be dipped into for expert advice and guidance at any stage of your career.
Covering topics as wide-ranging as the four-day working week, bridging the workplace generation gap, making sure your company walks its diversity talk, quiet quitting and the great resignation, achieving workplace equality and even micro-dosing for creativity, The Future-Proof Career spreads the word so we can all have happier, more productive lives. Get ahead of uncertainty and take control of your career.
