"There are no more "safe" industries. The ability to reinvent your career at any moment is the new - and only - form of job security", writes founder and CEO of the Reinvention Institute, Pamela Mitchell in her dynamic and empowering book The 10 Laws of Career Reinvention: Essential Survival Skills for Any Economy. The author provides the tools and creative thinking necessary to reinvent a career in today's rapidly changing economy.
Pamela Mitchell recognizes that the employment map is changing before our very eyes. No longer can a person expect to find a safe haven within a company, or even move to a similar position with with another firm. In fact, the author dismisses this traditional approach to career management as outdated, and even deadly to a person's career path, and describes a new way of thinking and acting in a highly competitive job market. To this end, Pamela Mitchell presents the reinvention mindset as an alternative to traditional career development ideas. The author stresses and clarifies the critical importance of being mentally, emotionally, and financially prepared to meet the challenges of a difficult and often treacherous labor market.
Pamela Mitchell (photo left) understands that changing careers can be a very traumatic experience as well as a severe culture shock. The author shares her own personal experiences, as well as those of other successful career reinventors, to help ease the transition from one career path to one that is entirely different. Pamela Mitchell shows the reader how to capitalize on current skills and to use them as a starting point for a complete career change. Along the way, she dispels a number of myths and misconceptions that surround career paths and employment stability. Career reinvention skills give the job seeker the adaptability and survival mindset to overcome any unemployment challenges successfully.
For me, the power of the book is how Pamela Mitchell combines the theory of career reinvention, with ten practical laws that provide the skills necessary, to survive and thrive in any economy. These lessons are enhanced through real world case studies and success stories. The author teaches her readers how to recognize and anticipate changes in the economy and the employment world. Larger societal trends and changes become the friend of the career reinventor, offering opportunity to change careers and increase levels of success, money, and a positive attitude. The book contains valuable worksheets that help the reader discover how to enhance their own reinvention skills. The ability to adapt to different and unexpected circumstances, combined with the right skills and mindset as described in the book, will keep anyone's career moving forward regardless of changes in its direction.

This is not a book for those who prefer traditional employment guides. Instead, this book is designed for the person who is willing to accept that change is part of everyone's working life, and that no career path is permanent any longer. Instead of platitudes, Pamela Mitchell offers advice that the job seeker can use effectively in any economy.
