This book delivers fresh and actionable advice for enhancing your career and maximising prospects for advancement. It focuses heavily on the evolving corporate, economic, and technical landscape, as well as the new problems this poses for employment retention and advancement. With the impact of the pandemic, the ongoing fourth industrial revolution, the growing awareness of institutionalised discrimination, and the fears of an economic recession, it is almost an understatement to say that we have entered a 'new normal' in which working patterns and career paths have irreversibly shifted. Futureproof Your Career provides key insights into how these changes will impact the essential functions and roles within organisations and how, with a greater awareness of how these changes are unfolding, readers will be able to develop a stronger awareness of new opportunities and be better prepared to protect their jobs and advance their careers in this new environment. This book by two prominent academics is both a practical guide to success and an insightful look at the future of employment. It draws on both the writers' academic research and an international array of case studies and interviews to deliver entertaining and illuminating insights that will aid any professional with their career, whether they're a C-suite executive or an entry-level employee.
