Why is Traditional Career Planning Dead? Audiobook Author Miles Anthony Smith Offers Answers
In a time where career chaos and transition is prevalent, new career transition audiobook offers hope and a new approach to career planning, one that requires agility, adaptability, and resilience.
Green Bay, WI, December 22, 2014 (Newswire.com) - While most books on career advice are written by authors that are part of the Baby Boomer Generation, this one is written by someone who is both from Generation X and Generation Flux. Miles Anthony Smith has released his new audiobook Becoming Generation Flux: Why Traditional Career Planning is Dead: How to be Agile, Adapt to Ambiguity, and Develop Resilience. With the Boomer Generation remaining in their work positions longer due to delayed retirement brought on by the Great Recession, Generations X, Y, and Z are facing stunted career growth. Becoming Generation Flux offers both the stark, harsh reality of our situation as well as hope and action steps to stay relevant in the ever-changing workplace.
Why is career planning more challenging than in recent memory? Miles says, "Much has changed over the last two decades. Many of the middle class blue collar jobs have vanished with more part-time, cheaper paying, and less desirable jobs replacing those. And many of today's younger generations are scared, floundering to see a positive career future, many choosing to live at home delaying marriage, home ownership, and things normally envisioned as part of a successful career and life."
