The L.I.P.S. Career Advancement Method is just what I need right now. I've been treading water as an adjuct and freelancer, and I want to be moving forward. This guide is direct and instantly useful, helping both job seekers and employees understand where and why they are stuck and what to do about it. It's clearly written, grounded in solid advice, and inspirational too.I really appreciate that L.I.P.S is a proven framework. It gives structure and an action plan to big changes. Each letter in the acronym represents a strategy for standing out, and within each letter a rich breakdown of tactic are described and explained. Lots of ideas and direction! For me, the framework helped me hone in on a profound need to amp up my "I" initiatives to show I know how to implement the improvements that will make me indispensable, and then leverage self-promotion (P.) It's all juicy, useful stuff.I really appreciate the pro formatting of this guide. Not only is the info great, but the book is well organized, with hyperlinked chapters AND subchapters, and with workbook type questions at the end of each chapter. This makes the book useful immediately and long term.A must read for recent college graduates, employees looking to advance their career, or those looking to pivot including those who have been laid off or who left their previous jobs, military veterans, caregivers re-entering the workforce, and anyone changing careers to reach their goals.
