Synopsis

Navigate the weird, chaotic world of modern work, no matter your position

While there's no shortage of advice on being amazing or avoiding burnout, what if you simply want to get things done in a workplace that feels increasingly impossible? Effective is here to help you get your job done well without losing your mind. Drawing from up-to-date research and provocative interviews with employees across industries and levels, renowned people consultant Melissa Swift offers a positive, well-illuminated path through the dark forest of destabilizing workplace changes.

Effective provides readers with:

• Strategies to triumph amid four trends making work tough today: work intensification, emotional inflection, hyper-transparency, and sheer chaos
• Practical, research-backed approaches to improve their daily work life, from entry-level employees to CEOs
• Tips for maintaining competence in a working world seemingly designed to make you feel incompetent
• Insights on how to make sure your personal sources of effectiveness don’t get disrupted by technological change
• Lessons to be learned from jobs where you simply cannot screw up, such as firefighters and air traffic controllers, and how to apply them to a corporate environment

Effective delivers useful content for every level of seniority, teaching readers a new paradigm-shifting approach to thrive in the modern world of work.
