Have you ever had the feeling that you're treading water professionally; that you're coming up against limits in terms of what you can achieve? If so, says Christian Greiser, it might be high time to take some time out. Careers progress through distinct phases: we climb the career ladder, we change direction or set up a business and, eventually, we retire. As different as these phases are, so too are the rules of success that govern them. If we are to keep succeeding, we must mentally 'shift gears' and realign ourselves accordingly along the way. We must take an honest and sometimes challenging look at our own character: understanding the inner driving forces behind our previous successes, questioning our patterns of behaviour and discarding the behaviours that no longer serve us. In this way, we can accomplish the transition to the next phase of our life and career and come back stronger than before. Passionate 'career technician' Christian Greiser is here to help us do just that. In this humorously written new book, he draws on insights from his many years of experience as an executive coach and incorporates research findings, case studies and exercises to show how we can reset our mental attitude and achieve success and fulfilment in the next phase.
