About the Summary
Editor’s Note: This book is a powerhouse guide to career development, blending practical strategies with insightful leadership wisdom.
There’s one crucial rule that’s common to both chess and the career game: Even when you start out as a pawn, it’s possible to become the queen. To do that, you must learn how to identify the tasks that will add maximum value to your career, how to understand the vernacular of leadership, and how to navigate interpersonal conflict successfully. In Secrets of the Career Game, Kendall Berg gives people the tools to understand that while the work that they do is important, everything else they are not doing is just as important. It is learning the right way to position themselves for opportunities, relationships, and promotions. Most importantly, it is to stop gambling, learn the rules of the game, and start playing to win.
