GET HIRED! Grow. Lead. Live.
Finding the right job, keeping it, advancing, and eventually achieving a leadership position is difficult, especially in challenging economic times. However, Hal Eastman retains an upbeat belief it is still possible, but that your success is highly dependent on an enterprising job search and on utilizing the very different skills needed at each career stage.

These valuable and pragmatic insights—based on actual executive experience—cut through the theoretical chaff of much of today’s “how to” business literature. From graduates looking for their first jobs to unemployed job seekers, new managers, and even CEOs, there’s something here for everyone, whatever the current stage of a career.

You’ll also find sage advice on leading a balanced life, even in times of economic challenge and unprecedented change, with their accompanying job stresses. All of this makes this little “handbook” highly worthwhile reading.

About the Author

Hal Eastman is a native of the Pacific Northwest and a graduate of the University of Puget Sound and the Stanford Graduate School of Business. He enjoyed a thirty-year business career, starting with Boeing and Ford Motor Company and later holding management and leadership positions in industries as diverse as printing, forest products, specialty chemicals, biotechnology, scientific supplies, and wireless communications. During this time, he was president of two large public companies, Fisher Scientific and McCaw Cellular (today AT&T Wireless), and founder of two small businesses.

Eastman was also involved in several major public company mergers and acquisitions, and led their operational integration. He later served on a number of corporate and non-profit boards.

He resigned his executive management positions at age 55 to pursue fine art photography. He has since enjoyed an arts career specializing in dance photography, including the publication of three books, Natural Dance, Dancessence, and Dream Riders.

Eastman lives in Boise, Idaho, with his wife Jacque and has a photography studio in Carmel, California.
