Waiting Is Not an Action: Accelerate Your Career Today and Formulate Your Future Plural Career

by Andrew Walter

Overview

Explore how to accelerate your career today and formulate your future plural career

After 26 years as a Procter & Gamble technology executive and five years as an Independent Board Director and Strategic Advisor, I've learned there is no epiphany more powerful than realizing that many leaders are completely trapped! CEOs are trapped by their boards and investors; technology leaders are trapped by their colleagues that fail to see technology as truly strategic; the C-Suite is trapped by a lack of transparency from their internal and external advisors; and executives are trapped by a system of business processes that determines where they need to travel, what meetings they need to attend, and the 75% they must do because that's the way it has always been done. Leaders are trapped playing not to lose, and it's impacting them professionally, financially, and personally!

In Waiting Is Not an Action: Accelerate Your Career Today & Formulate Your Future Plural Career, I share incredible teaching moments, insights on flourishing in a Fortune 500 enterprise, and the inside story on transitioning into a thriving plural career – board seats, strategic advisory roles, speaking, writing, and the associated multiple benefits. Whether you are starting your career, are frozen mid-career, or are in the C-Suite and feeling trapped, this book provides a proven approach to empower you to reach new heights.

Learn how to:
• Build a strong personal brand and flourishing network.
• Create the right personal, professional, and financial balance in your life.
• Structure a career and life strategy that propels you now and sets up a successful future.
• Put your life and career back on track when you fall off course.

That's not all! Waiting Is Not an Action will reshape the way you think about your career; it will show you how to define what is winning, and it will give you the tools and strategies you need to play to win. \
