Careers are not linear, predictable ladders any longer; they are fluid trajectories. No matter our age, life stage, bank account balance, or seniority, we are all being asked to navigate career changes much more frequently than in years past. The average employee tenure in America is just four to five years, and even those roles change dramatically within that time. Our economy now demands that we create businesses and careers based on creativity, growth, and impact. In this dynamic world of work, the only move that matters is your next one.

What disappointed you about Pivot?
I felt this book was for people so down on their luck that they needed a fresh start.
What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?
I stopped listening in the first chapter, it made me feel sad.
