Design Your Life : Your Career, Your Way

2024

Kogan Page, The Limited

Design Your Life is a wake-up call. It's the alarm clock you didn't know you needed, ringing loudly in the era of remote work and creator economy. Ignore at your own risk., A lot of what gets passed on as 'good careers advice' is based on 20th-century corporate careers. Real life is running somewhat ahead of this but few experts have been able to capture, distil and pass on what matters in today's always-online world - mostly because we are too old. Design Your Life is the book to fill that gap. Erifili is talking to her Gen Z peers, but her book is also a must-read for anyone who is curious to understand how we can make the most of our unique skills and qualities, while harnessing the exciting new tech-driven possibilities for a long-term and fulfilling working life., With Design Your Life, Erifili Gounari provides remarkable clarity and insights to Gen Zs on how to navigate the fast changing external environment and how to extract opportunities from the new digital world. Through the lens of her experience, she offers insights that will not only make digital entrepreneurship accessible to anyone but also enable Gen Zs to redefine what success means in a modern world. I highly recommend this book for prospective entrepreneurs and businesses keen to understand this new 'career' paradigm., This book is a masterclass in finding your true calling. Erifili blends wisdom with practical steps, making it a must-read for Gen Z in particular to navigate their career with purpose and passion. Could not recommend more!, Discover Gen Z's approach to side gigs, marketing and more in Design Your Life. Packed with novel insights and practical advice on personal branding and remote work, this book redefines success for a new generation. As a Gen Zer myself, I resonated deeply with many perspectives and, at the same time, took copious notes on how to (re-)design my own life now. A must-read for those eager to connect with Gen Z and thrive in today's fast-paced world. (My favourite tip: Get things done.)
