You Have a Choice: Beyond Hard Work to Meaningful Impact
https://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B0CM8P1SVX/ericnehrlisho-20I wrote this book to help people who are stuck because working harder isn’t working for them. They have had success in their career but are blocked from further advancement, often because they are holding onto mindsets or behaviors that are keeping them in place. I redesigned my life after burning out at Google in 2011 when feeling similarly stuck, and now help leaders as an executive coach to find a new path forward. I wrote this book to share what I’ve learned with a wider audience, because I want to help more people than I can coach individually.
