Career fitness is the state of being perpetually prepared for the next level of your journey. It is the opposite of complacency. Most people wait until they are laid off or miserable to look at their resumes or expand their networks.
That is like trying to run a marathon after sitting on a couch for five years. It is painful and often results in injury. Steven D. Brand teaches you how to stay in “game shape” year round.
