Today, career reinvention is the new-and only-form of job security.

Until recently, most people expected to have one career with maybe two or three job changes in a lifetime. Now, experts advise us to expect seven or eight jobs with multiple industry changes. If you want to survive, you need the ability to transfer and repurpose your skills in a completely new direction.

In The 10 Laws of Career Reinvention, Pamela Mitchell shows you how your knowledge, experience, and skill sets can be adapted to a wide spectrum of industries and jobs, and provides the tools to help you navigate the full art of career change.

With ten clear, insightful, and practical "laws," you can:
*Market your skills to anyone
*Transition seamlessly from one industry to another
*Find fulfillment in a career that fits you

From finding a vision to creating your action plan, The 10 Laws of Career Reinvention walks you through your own path to a new career, with success stories, workbook exercises, and actionable steps to start your new life today.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Informative, Intelligent & Instructional !!
    Reviewed in the United States on November 30, 2012

    I found this book to also be refreshing, not the same old, same old as usually preached to women. Recharges ambition. Offers practical steps to one's goal. As a retired Mother of two women one in her 50's the other in her 40's even though they are career accomplished, in this economy and with my longevity of life and experience this book offers very sound reasons and methods of providing for a "Plan B" if needed or desired. This book will be in their Christmas stocking's this year.

    I started reading this book and could not put it down. Pamela Mitchell has an amazing sense of what people are really going through in their search for true fulfillment in their work and in their lives. She offers so many practical strategies and in a do-able order. Her "extras" at the back of the book and available on her website offer huge value to the reader. I would recommend this book to anyone who is "searching" and is ready to work with a powerful plan.

    I met Pamela Mitchell in 2005 at one of her workshops and have become one of her regular disciples now. In the interest of full disclosure, I was actually interviewed for this book (p 125). Pamela's knowledge and insight amaze me and I've kept her guidance in my head every time I've worked on my profession development and career changes over the past 7 years. A great read and a lot of helpful information in here!

    Reviewed in the United States on November 12, 2012
    Verified Purchase
    Takeaway's from this book were too little. I had hoped this book would be a "one stop shop" for career reinvention; I found I needed to purchase other workbooks. I do not have the support system "board" to help me through this process. I found it offensive to call the people you're attempting to meet and interview with as "Natives". I did enjoy the story about Alton Brown. I watched the author's interview on one of the popular television talk shows. The author was motivational.

    I usually don't do reviews often, mainly because I'm not a writer, or maybe it's because I have nothing to write. However, this book is the one of the best books I read in a while. I give it 2 thumbs up for the Arther, she is great. I would recommend this book to everyone, especially if you trying to re-invent your thought process and changing careers.

    Great book--I even purchased extra copies as gifts for friends who are also at a crossroads and yearning to do something more meaningful. The author, Pamela Mitchell provides real life examples which makes it an engaging read and even more importantly, she is direct and honest about the pitfalls people will encounter on the path of career reinvention--all the while very inspirational.

    Career profile on local shaker & mover: he cited this book as very influential in his beginnings. I checked it out from the library, read it, and loved it so much that I bought my own copy so I could dog-ear pages to quickly refer to for great info.
