Written by Carol Kleiman in 1994, The Career Coach provides inside tips to getting and keeping the job you want. According to this book, the career coach gives guidance and inside information to help readers win the right job and have a successful professional life.
Throughout the book there are coach’s tips, which are more like sage advice from a career counselor or mentor:
- A dialogue is what you want with your boss, not a confrontation-from either side.
- To inspire trust, you must be trustworthy.
- Read the employee handbok as if it were a bible. It is.
- Keep a low profile in the early days of your job. You’ll learn much more that way.
- When it comes to business networks, don’t leave home without one.
Kleinman, dubbed the ‘career coach’ by her editor, with a few updates could have published this book today during our current challenging economic times.
