Book update

It’s been a couple of weeks since I last wrote an update. In the time I’ve been away, I came up with a possible outline for the book.

Title: How to Change Careers
Subtitle: Use the skill set you already possess to make your next career transition

Outcome for job seekers: Appreciation for self, a better understanding of the career/job market landscape, confidence, enthusiasm to get started

The book would consist of three sections.

Section 1: What you already have
- Transferrable skills
- Established network
- Access to potential colleagues
- Career story worth sharing

Section 2: What you need next
- Visibility/online presence
- New positioning
- New network
- Insight into the new industry

Section 3: What you’ll get (the rewards)
- Introductions
- Access to decision-makers
- A foot in the door
- A new job/lateral move
- The beginnings of a professional platform

My ultimate goal is for this book to be as useful and value-adding as possible.

What do you think about the outline so far? Does it feel exciting/engaging? Is there anything that you’d like to see added?
