Crafting a Successful Career

Crafting a Successful Career is the career direction you've been looking for. You are about to enter the workforce and you think you are ready. Now what?

Using a step-by-step approach, author R.A.Kuffel identifies early career obstacles and coaches you through eight strategies guaranteed to accentuate your talents and create a platform for career growth that is unique to you. The author begins with a challenge for you to create your own definition of success--the only definition that matters--then suggests you get a job (go after a big job first), find a mentor, become the best technical person you can be, create your network, understand sponsorship and learn to influence it, perform well, generate a backup plan, develop character qualities and attitudes, beware of potential pitfalls, and manage factors you cannot control.

If you are twenty-five and entering the workplace for the first time, forty-five and turning your career around, or sixty-five and wondering what happened, this book is for you
