What does it take to get and keep the job you want? Ninety-six percent of employers argue that it's not just about having the right skills for the position- it's all about the right mindset.
Two world-leading experts on the subject, Reed and Stoltz know what employers really want from the people they hire and keep. According to their extensive and globally-acclaimed research, there is a specific set of mental traits, or what they call the '3G Mindset' that will make you exponentially more desirable to potential employers:
- Global: The big-picture perspective to compete on a global scale in any job
- Good: A positive force with an unwavering moral compass
- Grit: the tenacity and resilience to thrive on adversity
In these unstable times, everyone wants to stand out from the crowd and secure a rewarding job with long-term potential. This book will show you how.
