Despite the diversity of these audiences, the inspiring message of Moving the Needle has given thousands of lives and careers the jump-start they needed. Many of us feel we are on shaky ground in today's economic climate. Making a big move can seem ill-advised, especially if it means branching out from a relatively secure position. But, as the author of Moving the Needle knows, each of us only has one life to live. It is possible to go after and achieve our business and personal goals, but it can be tough to do it alone. The probing questions and illuminating exercises at the end of each chapter of this book can provide the coaching you need to make a confident transition into the next phase of life, and create your winning game plan. This book brings together decades of coaching insight from the author of the New York Times bestseller Networking Is a Contact Sport. The path outlined in Moving the Needle is not a shortcut, but rather an illuminating journey through which readers can discover what's holding them back¿and learn how to overcome the obstacles with clarity, freedom, and the motivation to get going.
