About the Book

Rocketships & Parachutes contains proven, practical and powerful lessons to launch the reader's career on an upward trajectory, and lessons on how to land the career safely by managing undesirable situations-all in real-world settings. Have you ever said, "Why didn't I learn my lesson?" This book will save you from feeling that way. Maybe you've wondered, "How can I handle that situation?" Among the book's 365 lessons, there are many that will help launch a career; others relate how to bail out of problem situations to safely land, with a career intact. The book follows the author's career progression from youth to maturity, from a young professional to the executive ranks. Thus, its lessons will be useful to readers of all ages and career stages. The book is like having a mentor at your fingertips. Many lessons apply to life as well as business, and each is explained by a simple story of how the lesson was learned. Readers can learn from the author's experiences and avoid the inevitable mishaps. This is a must-have guide to a successful career.
