Written by three career experts, An Intelligent Career is a playbook
for the modern knowledge worker, providing a complete guide that will
allow workers to take a composite, dynamic view of a life's work in the
21st century.
"Knowledge work" is fundamental in today's economy. It is the basis for
long-term success in the global economy and it drives the collective
brainpower through which goods and services are delivered. And today,
knowledge work requires much more than a college degree: it means
understanding the changing nature of work and employment, and the
processes through which knowledge is generated, transferred, and
applied. It means understanding new career possibilities, more dynamic
work arrangements, and the growing demand for knowledge work around the
globe. It means navigating work life with an authenticity that replaces
any straightforward loyalty to a single employer, and instead calls for
better understanding of the self, collaborators, clients, and customers.
Now in paperback, An Intelligent Career provides clear guidance on how
to take charge of your own destiny, seek continuous learning,
collaborate with others, recognize and act on fresh opportunities,
determine when it is time to move on, and much more.
