But what if there was a way to learn the hard lessons before you make a mistake? Work Lessons 101 - What they Don't Teach You in School has compiled over 400 Work Lessons covering 50 different topics that will help prepare you for your career and assist in preventing you from making common mistakes. Many people struggle to progress forward in the work environment. The old advice of work hard, put your head down, and you'll be promoted is terrible advice, and the education system has failed to adequately prepare students for their post-academic careers.

Work Lessons 101 provides practical career advice and examples of how to: - Learn an organization's unwritten rules, - Manoeuvre around a bad boss, - Build a bulletproof reputation, and - Recognize and build an influential network that will help you. This book applies to anyone who wants the tools to launch a successful career. It provides practical, no-nonsense career advice that will teach you how to create career opportunities and open your own doors.
