Are you wondering why everyone else appears to have a career plan? Is it true that only the most aggressive and power hungry people get what they want? How to Take Control of your Career, adapted from John Lees earlier book, How to Get the Perfect Promotion, is a practical guide to developing the best career strategy for you. Drawing on the experience of high performers, it shows you how to overcome mental and physical barriers, make the best visible impact, and negotiate your job content, career advancement and pay.

"A great way to kick-start your career makeover."
Cosmopolitan

"A joy to read as well as an indispensable roadmap for anyone serious
about managing their careers"
Steve Crabb, Editor, People Management

"Highly recommended - always practical, but never patronising."
Ian Wylie, Guardian Rise

“His advice is not to be faulted: he proffers an eminently sensible set of strategies for

self-promotion, all of which plainly work to the advantage of the corporate body as much as to the individual.”

Management Today, October 2003

"John Lees inspires people to rethink the way they work: to work with greater purpose, meaning and work/life balance"
Andrea Watson, Daily Express CAREERS
