How to Make Your Career Suck Less has been published
Hear, hear! I am happy to announce the publication of my latest nonfiction, tech-related book. It comes with a snarky title How to Make Your Career Suck Less. Or, in other words, A Guide to a Less Painful IT Existence. This book is a culmination of some twenty years of my fairly successful work in the tech industry, where I’ve faced many an absurd situation, hordes of yesmen, tons of bureaucracy, and heaps of nonsense. And I bet, if you work in the tech space, you’ve experienced it all, too.
Or, perhaps, the way I phrased in on the backcover:
Once upon a time, you were young, naive, full of hope, dreams and ambitions. You thought you could make a change! But then you started working in IT …
Your career isn’t progressing as you imagined? Too much micro-management, too much workplace politics? Not sure how to transform your ideas into projects? Looking for a way to add structure to your everyday job? Perhaps I can help. Let’s turn the tables. Let’s embrace the aggressive in passive-aggressive.
This book is a practical, down-to-earth guide on how to make your career more successful, despite the corporate odds stacked against you. It’s not all bitter cynicism, either. The book offers genuine, proven tips, too: how to write your CV and prepare for an interview, how to create your first open-source project, how to talk to your manager, how to present at a conference, and a lot more.
Join me for a fantastic ride. Let the un-suckening begin.
