  As employment patterns and management structures are transformed, professionals who might have spent their entire careers climbing one corporate ladder are suddenly discovering that the ladder has disappeared. Individuals are now having to take more responsibility for the development of their own professional growth, and be prepared for whatever twists and turns the economy (or their employer) makes. Presenting detailed case studies and practical tips, this book shows readers how the application of corporate management techniques to their careers can increase stable employment. It aims to demonstrate how individuals can: build a valuable portfolio of skills and experiences to boost their own employability; become their own coach by developing a keen sense of self-awareness; actively manage their own career development; and look forward to long-term employment.
