Adler S: The Career Change Manual

The Career Change Manual

How Ordinary Adults Start Again Without Starting from Zero

Why the career ladder you were climbing has come apart, and what to do about it.Your job title may still be intact. The meetings continue; the monthly presentation still needs producing. But AI is already taking on the reporting, coordination, research and analysis work that once justified whole teams. The change seldom arrives with a dramatic announcement. It's more insidious than that: the hire is paused, the contractor is not renewed, the promotion evaporates.Written by someone building the tools behind this shift, The Next Rung looks at the knowledge-work middle: project leads, analysts, account managers, operations teams and managers whose jobs depend on orchestration. It traces the pressure from boardroom economics to kitchen-table arithmetic, and asks what happens when professional incomes and mortgages are exposed at the same time.Inside, you'll find: <ul> <li> The roles AI is quietly hollowing out </li> <li> Why the 'junior grind' is disappearing </li> <li> The 80/20 Collapse in professional work </li> <li> A practical audit of your exposure and runway </li> <li> The human capabilities that still matter </li> <li> Routes towards trades, portfolio work and community enterprise </li> <li> What AI's gains mean for housing, welfare and inequality. </li> </ul>This is a clear-eyed notebook from inside the transition, focused on judgement, resilience and building work with more human value. It will let you know where you stand, strengthen your options, and help you make your next move before the ladder disappears beneath you.

Why AI is breaking the career ladder, and how to find your next step

The Next Rung

An Operator's Guide to the Startup World

The Starting Yard

'A wonderful book.' Cathy Rentzenbrink'A remarkable tale' The SpectatorA giant wheel of Comte¿ - a cheese full of delight, a mosaic of flavour - can sometimes become flat. Despite all that's gone into making it and caring for it, its complexity mysteriously vanishes, its spark dies. Cheesemongers know that. That's why they regularly test the cheeses: they insert a cheese iron deep into the wheel and extract a sample from its core. Sometimes they can cure it and sometimes they can't.A highly successful BBC and Guardian Journalist, somehow Michael Finnerty's life had become flat. His psychological cheese iron told him he needed to make a change, and he becomes convinced his salvation lies in cheese. Michael becomes an apprentice cheesemonger at Borough Market, and is plunged into a world of intense physicality, extraordinary knowledge, and total geeky passion. From learning the cheese's personal nighttime riders - Castillon Frais needs to sit in its box underneath some waxed paper but its box needs to be kept in a plastic sheath, Comté sits unwrapped in a cool cupboard, and has a quick saline bath before bed - to learning intricate ways to wrap their different shapes; from being able to taste nuances between the cheeses, to slicing fingers, bruising toes, getting allergic reactions, and the simple dog-tiredness of being on your feet from the crack of dawn till night, Michael's new job is more demanding than he could ever have imagined - and he loves it. Then when Borough Market is subjected to a terrifying attack, Michael realises through cheese, he has found something even more powerful - community.

**This edition will be released in March 2027. If you want to get a copy ahead of then, have a look at our hardback edition, released in May 2026.** 'If you're worried about wasting your life, read this book.' Rutger Bregman, author of Humankind A ridiculously in-depth guide to finding a fulfilling and impactful career in an age of AI. You have about 80,000 hours in your career: 40 hours a week, 50 weeks a year, for 40 years. This means your choice of career is the most important decision you'll ever make. Choose well, and you can have a more rewarding, interesting life, and also help solve some of the world's most pressing problems. Choose poorly, and you could waste decades. So what should you do? Most advice is based on no research, instead offering (misleading) platitudes like 'follow your passion'. It's surprisingly out of date, focusing on traditional paths rather than those most likely to thrive in an age of AI. And if you want to help others, the advice is even more simplistic: telling you to choose careers like nurse or doctor, when there are paths in which almost anyone can save more lives. In fact, some careers have hundreds of times more impact than others, but most of us have no idea which ones. Benjamin Todd is the founder of 80,000 Hours, a non-profit that's spent over ten years researching how to have a meaningful and impactful career. Here he introduces a tried-and-tested toolkit framework that has already led thousands of people to change their path. It covers:<ul><li>What really makes for a dream job, and why finding it probably doesn't involve 'following your passion'.</li><li>How to identify which global problems are most pressing, and why they might involve AI as much as climate change.</li><li>Which roles are likely to be automated, and how to ensure yours isn't among them.</li></ul> It's also full of practical tips and tools. You'll come away with a plan to use your 80,000 hours in a way that's rewarding and fulfils your potential to make a difference. 'This career guide is among the most thoughtful and grounded I've seen.' Cal Newport, author of Deep Work 'A remarkably rigorous guide about how to find that perfect career for you.' Ali Abdaal, author of Feel-Good Productivity 'Based on evidence and good sense, not platitudes.' Steven Pinker, author of The Better Angels of our Nature 'The most informative book you can read if you're stuck trying to make one of life's most important decisions.' Hannah Ritchie, author of Not the End of the World

A Personal Transformation Self-Help Guide to Starting a Freedom-Based Business

Escape the 9-5

The retail Home Video industry of Hollywood came in like a hurricane in the mid-1990s, bringing hundreds of millions of dollars to increasingly stagnant movie studios desperate to combat rising film and TV production costs. The windfall was a shot in the arm for nearly all media conglomerates, propelling companies to create more and more entertainment.

Then, merely 15 years later, it was gone. 

In an eerie echo of what is happening across industries today, this intriguing business memoir tells the story of that era, and of the disappearing career paths of those who lived it, as told by the Hollywood executive who was there in the center of it all, from the birth of Home Video, to the DVD revolution, to the moment it all disappeared. 

Part behind-the-scenes memoir, part playbook for those looking to risk-proof their own careers, Pivoted moves from factory floors and flight lines to studio lots and boardrooms, through stints that include McDonnell Douglas, Disney, New Line Cinema, and many more, to show how careers and lives can pivot on a dime, at any corporate level.

For readers of career memoirs and practical leadership stories, this is a sober look at how corporate America increasingly works, and how its workers increasingly don't. It includes real-world advice about how to prepare for unforeseen career changes, and the skills you need today to be ready for the future.

Marshall Carr is a senior operations executive in Hollywood with over 25 years of leadership experience in the worldwide entertainment industry. He has held key roles at New Line Cinema (SVP of Operations and Distribution), Technicolor (VP of Global Account Management), and Universal Music Group (SVP of North American Supply Chain), overseeing major global accounts and multimillion-dollar operations. In this personal memoir, Marshall takes you along on his own journey, company by company, revealing the inside story of each, along with his own insights into generational career expectations and many personal asides. As the wave of digital change overcame each of company, Marshall and many others like him were left increasingly desperate to constantly search for the next job, one by one, learning insights along the way, as he eventually became Pivoted.

You Had Me At Pumpkin Patch

Too young to retire, too vital to stand still, too experienced to start from scratch? Welcome to your Bonus Years. Increased longevity has gifted us fifteen-to-twenty extra active, healthy working years, shattering the traditional linear career script of learning, working, and retiring. In The Bonus Years, the world's leading expert on career transition, and London Business School Professor Herminia Ibarra, delivers the definitive, social-science-backed resource for navigating later-career transformation. Ibarra reveals that thriving in an extended work life requires abandoning the old linear, plan-and-implement strategies. Instead, successful reinvention comes through 'resourceful discovery' - a disciplined process of active experimentation, trying on new futures, and knowing when to adjust your course. Whether change has arrived uninvited through an industry shock, or a quiet internal restlessness is telling you it's time to let go, this book provides the actionable tools to build transition mastery and successfully map your path forward. Filled with rich and varied case studies of professionals who reinvented themselves across the globe, The Bonus Years is an empowering manifesto for anyone who refuses to stand still. It is proof that to bloom late is not to bloom less - it is to bloom with deeper roots, on your own terms.
