Any career consultant - or high-school guidance counselor - who doesn't immediately order copies of this book in bulk is missing the boat - big time. |

Hard-hitting and informative yet bursting with optimism...Pink has a knack for teaching in such an entertaining way that you'll forget you are learning.

Outrageous, delightful ... If the precepts in 'The Adventures of Johnny Bunko' help some slackers open nail salons or become billionaires in some offbeat business, that's all to the good

The ideal gift for those in need of a career shakeup who claim they have no time to even think about next steps. |
