description: Fifty years ago, workers strove to move steadily up the ranks of one or two stable companies. Today'¬?s workers jump from company to company, building contacts, expanding skill sets, and increasing salaries at each one. Job security has taken on a new meaning, referring to security within your chosen career, rather than a single company. In THE NEW JOB SECURITY, executive career management consultant Pam Lassiter teaches early- to mid-career professionals how to navigate this new work environment by mastering five key skills: waiting for the right job, taking control, reciprocal marketing, career networking, and broad-based negotiating. If you'¬?re looking for ways to take control of a current job, or struggling to manage the transitional period between jobs, Lassiter'¬?s proven advice shows workers at all stages of their careers how to stay competitive and achieve their professional goals. Emphasizes strategies for lifelong career success, not just job-hunting tactics. Targeted to professionals operating on outdated career management principles, employees who realize they'¬?re at risk in current jobs, and workers in transition.
