Praise for John Lees Work and Careers Books

John Lees is one of the grand masters in the burgeoning field of careers coaching. His practical yet inspiring approach helps people not only to make the right career decisions but to work out how they can live their lives to the full, and with meaning.

Liz Hall, Editor, Coaching at Work

John Lees is brilliant at creating the kind of mind shift we all need to see ourselves and our work in a way that lets us transform both.

Maureen Rice, Editor, Psychologies

I know first hand the joy that being in the right career can bring and I commend John Lees for his books and seminars which help other people do just that.

Rosemary Conley CBE

John Lees work is both inspirational and motivational, urging you to constantly think outside the box. He challenges you to lose the excuses and to take managing your career into your own hands.

Sarah Kenyon, Career Development Specialist, Orange

John Lees inspires people to rethink the way they work.

Daily Express

You can always rely on John Lees to come up with helpful, practical advice that is both accessible and effective.

Terry Gibson, Editor of AMED Organisations & People

Always practical, but never patronising.

The Guardian

I love Johns straight-up approach. Theres nothing airy-fairy about the career advice in his books and yet the tone holds your interest, not the usual dry-as-a-bone business book banter. What I love most is that its real-life, real-world stuff: first he guides you to making your own career decisions with passion and instinct but then he gives professional, realistic and very grown up advice about making those decisions happen. I can still remember reading How to Get a Job Youll Love as a young journalist fresh off the boat from Oz with zilch industry contacts. Now I am in my dream job Johns advice works, pure and simple.

Anna Magee, Health Editor, RED

Praise for How to Get a Job Youll Love

A jewel of a book to help even the most luckless and career-panicked. A must-read for everyone who wants work to be more than 9-to-5 drudgery.

Management Today

No matter how many barriers real or imagined are currently preventing you making the career change you know you need, this book will help you demolish them more effectively than a wrecking ball. Johns books are thought-provoking, stimulating, challenging and a pleasure to read and this is no exception. It could well change your life.

Steve Crabb, Editor, People Management

Get a grip focus on whats working, not what isnt

Y ou may be reading this book because your job faces an uncertain future, or youve been made redundant. Youre worried about finding something else youre job hunting and youve had disappointing results.

Its easy to be confused by recruiter feedback or put off by rejection. Worse still, you may have been panicked into feeling that nothing will work.

Before you take another step, focus on whats working, not whats going wrong. How many of the roles you have applied for have been centre target? Random applications for roles where youre unlikely to get shortlisted often result in rejection, and unless youre careful this can lead to a loss of confidence. Its pointless considering wild shots as failures. Concentrate on the results you achieve applying for jobs you want and might get.


Picture 5 Trainee pilots are taught to face emergencies by not putting their focus on what is broken, but on whatever is still working enough to get you safely on the ground. Looking just at the downside of job search will ultimately drag down your performance. Look carefully at the results you are getting from your job search. Where have you received genuine feedback? What needs fixing?
