Quotes

“Jansen offers stories of those who made the career change successfully (or in some cases, found a way to renew their interest in their old positions) as well as guidelines for becoming more entrepreneurial. Her advice is seasoned and her tone encouraging, making this a solid resource for people who know they don’t like what they do; it might also be a wake-up call for others numbed into job complacency. ”

" Unfortunately this is just another self-help book and I am not in the mood for such kind of reading. I was expecting something else; but what really drove me crazy was the proliferation of questionnaires and written exercises that I couldn't find valuable enough. "
