The Proximity Principle - Audiobook

Calling all job hunters, career changers and college grads! Feel like the career you want is just too far out of reach? You’ve got the tools—you just need the manual that will get you closer.

You’re not alone. 70% of Americans are unhappy with their jobs.You want more than a nine-to-five J-O-B. You want to know why it’s so hard to find work you actually enjoy. Author and career expert Ken Coleman hears these same questions from callers on The Ken Coleman Show: 

• Is it too late to start over?
• Even if it’s not too late, what if I try and fail?
• What will my family and friends think if I try something new?
• Is my dream career even possible for me?

The mind-set and skill set Ken acquired early in his career—and shares daily with his radio listeners—is now a proven strategy that can work for you too. Ken Coleman will guide you toward the people and places you need to be closer to in order to succeed in getting a job you love.

The Proximity Principle demystifies the questions about who you need to know and where you need to be in order to find new opportunities.

When it comes to People, you’ll learn:

• How to build relationships with qualified experts (and where to find them)
• How to connect with professionals and learn from them as a resource 
• How to pursue a constructive and meaningful mentorship
• What types of peers you need to surround yourself with (and who to avoid)
• How to find companies and organizations that will help you continue to grow

When it comes to Places, you’ll discover:

• The exact distance between where you are right now and where your dream job is
• Where to go in order to get the skill set and education you need to succeed
• The best location for you to soak up as much experience as possible
• The places where you can start applying the skills you’ve learned
• Most importantly, the exact place where you can grow and do work that matters

Break free from boring and land your dream job with The Proximity Principle.
