Unspoken Truths For Career Success
$19.99Add to cartPeople are competing for jobs at a rate not seen since World War II. In this book, Tessa White teaches readers, specifically digital native millennials, how to recognize what is holding them back from getting a job and climbing the ladder.
People are competing for jobs in a country that hit a high of 14.8% unemployment in April (seasonally adjusted), a rate not seen in the post-World War II era. Of that population during the height of the pandemic, 57% of those who lost their jobs were unable to work because they closed or lost business. With many of these companies and industries collapsing or shutting their doors forever, it necessitated full career pivots for many individuals. It was not just about finding another job; it was about finding a whole new profession.
Adding to the shakeup are the quickly shifting workforce demographics as the Millennials and Generation Z (137,000,000 combined) take over the workforce. These digital natives are squarely in their career-building years, with younger members just getting started on a long career journey. And yet despite their numbers, they have unique work challenges, including being the most overlooked generational group for promotion and the slowest to advance.
This book acts as a workplace “bible” on how to address the most common work problems that get in the way of a person’s success including:
*Work burnout
*Lack of work/life balance
*Pay inequities
*Difficult work politics
*A lack of influence or power
*The lack of clarity around role or performanceLies That Got You Here shows how these common problems often play out and the mistakes individuals often make as they try to navigate them. The book also offers solutions that don’t jeopardize a person’s job or hurt their career, instead getting people back on a successful and satisfying career track. Where many people look to the company to provide the right setting, the right culture, or the right rules and processes, this book gives practical strategies and methods to change the way one interacts with the workplace altogether and get a different result. It requires the reader to be their own greatest advocate, highlighting a path for any individual to own a better workplace and career experience.

Coming Of Neo Feudalism
$20.99Add to cartFollowing a remarkable epoch of greater dispersion of wealth and opportunity, we are inexorably returning towards a more feudal era marked by greater concentration of wealth and property, reduced upward mobility, demographic stagnation, and increased dogmatism. If the last seventy years saw a massive expansion of the middle class, not only in America but in much of the developed world, today that class is declining and a new, more hierarchical society is emerging.
The new class structure resembles that of Medieval times. At the apex of the new order are two classes–a reborn clerical elite, the clerisy, which dominates the upper part of the professional ranks, universities, media and culture, and a new aristocracy led by tech oligarchs with unprecedented wealth and growing control of information. These two classes correspond to the old French First and Second Estates.
Below these two classes lies what was once called the Third Estate. This includes the yeomanry, which is made up largely of small businesspeople, minor property owners, skilled workers and private-sector oriented professionals. Ascendant for much of modern history, this class is in decline while those below them, the new Serfs, grow in numbers–a vast, expanding property-less population.
The trends are mounting, but we can still reverse them–if people understand what is actually occurring and have the capability to oppose them.

Paper Belt On Fire

Can such a madcap strategy help renew American creativity? Who would do such a thing?
This story is the behind-the-scenes romp of one team that threw educational authorities into a panic. It fuses real-life personal drama with history, science, and philosophy to show how higher education and other institutions must evolve to meet the dire challenges of tomorrow.

I Hope This Email Finds You Never
$19.99Add to cartAhhh, the modern workplace: a cauldron of stress and anxiety. From the moment we accept a new role, we’re thrown into a world of competing personalities, shifting protocols, and an endless stream of emails, Slack messages, and Zoom calls, all of which serve to distract us from the things we truly want to be doing, like eating Thai food and sleeping until noon.
I Hope This Email Finds You Never puts aside the motivational screeds, productivity hacks, and pop-science, and focuses instead on those things in the workplace that truly cause us grief–like a coworker eating an apple during a video call–in a lighthearted, entertaining, and (most importantly) cynical way.
Some things you’ll learn:
*How long you can get away with being “new” until you’re held accountable
*How to make it look like you’re sorry without giving up any power
*How to find a workplace friend and make a workplace enemy
*Camera position: how to set up your laptop for maximum dominance
*Organizing your calendar while leaving time to cry
*The rules of the kitchen (stealing someone’s yogurt is literally a crime)
*Writing a letter of resignation when you’ve already been resigned from day oneFrom Orientation (The Descent), Workplace Etiquette (No Eye Contact Before 11 AM), Working Remotely (Wink Wink), Coworkers (Getting Along with your fellow inmates), and everything in between, I Hope This Email Finds You Never is your must-have guide to surviving (thriving is not realistic) in the modern workplace.
