Now there are two books to choose from: the original Mapping Your Career Success plus the new Manager’s Edition with four additional chapters.
Mapping Your Career Success: Managers Edition
Written especially for managers, this book will help you develop your employees and mentees to reach their career ambitions—plus you can also use the process to further your own career.

The new chapters contain:
