Life is what happens while you go to work. "I can't take it anymore, I don't want to anymore!" Countless people contemplate quitting their jobs. Yet most let things continue as they are. Until it's too late: the years have flown by, and nothing satisfying has been accomplished. Those who proactively change jobs in a planned manner—like the two authors—act autonomously, experience a boost in motivation, improve their performance, and ultimately find happiness and fulfillment. This book is for everyone who doesn't want to drop out but wants to switch gears, who want to contribute and grow in their jobs. Written by two practitioners with extensive experience in making transitions, it is filled with examples and opens up a variety of viable paths. The key to professional happiness is not escaping a job, but finding the right job.
