Book Review (Video): Escape From Cubicle Nation

Why job seekers should read Pamela Slim’s sensational new book – Escape from Cubicle Nation: From Corporate Prisoner to Thriving Entrepreneur

 

Having been a big fan of highly successful blogger and coach Pamela Slim, I *had* to read her book. But I soon realized that this book is a gold mine for job seekers as well. Read on…

No job is permanent

  • Pam proclaims that “No job is permanent” – in this economy, a steady paycheck with benefits does not make a stable job
  • Your ‘job life’ should include a component of self employment or entrepreneurship that can provide you something to fall back on as Plan B and potentially provide you an additional stream of income in case of job loss
  • Pam lays down a very clear path of how can you make the transition towards your new ‘job life’:
  1. It walks you through how to tame you lizard fears
  2. How to find your inner tiger – i.e. ‘what makes you purr’
  3. How to choose a great idea
  4. How do you know you are ready to make the final leap
  5. and one of my favorites is how can you define the spirit of your brand. 

It is a collection of some of Pam’s best material and it has been put together is a simple, personal and readable format. Pam provides a great deal of practical ‘no-nonsense’ advice and the book is peppered with real life examples and comments.

Next time you are on your lunch break, read a chapter or two and start your escape from cubicle nation.
