A successful career awaits—no college degree required! This indispensable resource guides you through alternative routes to prosperity and fulfillment, from a renowned CEO who did it herself. Most people believe a degree is the price of admission to a meaningful, high-paying career. Without it, your options are limited, and your ceiling is fixed. But that narrative isn’t just outdated. It’s costing millions of capable professionals the futures they’ve already earned. In How to Get Hired Without a Degree, technologist CEO and DEI advocate LaShana Lewis dismantles the notion of the “paper ceiling” and reveals what it really takes to build a thriving career without a diploma. Drawing from her own journey—from being repeatedly shut out of opportunities to rising as a CTO—Lewis delivers a practical, proven roadmap for workers skilled through alternative routes (STARs). How to Get Hired Without a Degree equips readers with the tools to translate real-world skills into real opportunities—whether that means breaking into a new field, advancing into leadership, or finally being recognized for their value, with lessons including: <ul><li> How to focus on skill-building for a competitive advantage </li><li> How to gain credible experience without traditional credentials </li><li> How to navigate hiring processes with confidence and strategy </li><li> How to grow, pivot, and lead in your career long-term </li></ul> With this book, all professionals can feel empowered with the tools to claim the career they deserve and help reshape a workforce that’s primed for change.

An Alternative Path to a Successful Career

How to Get Hired Without a Degree

A collection of eye-opening natural experiments, showing how economists uncover cause-and-effect relationships and reveal insights about our world. Does having a daughter change how a congressperson votes? How did a nineteenth-century doctor help discover germs? Is it better to go first or second in a penalty shootout? Why don’t diplomats pay their parking tickets? Do leaders really matter? These are all questions economists ask. Some of these questions are serious, others less consequential. But all are interesting—and can be answered by way of the natural experiment. A natural experiment is an event in the real world that neatly divides people into a treatment group and a control group—and it is one of the greatest tools in the economist’s toolkit. In Daughters, Diplomats, and Death, Patrick Gourley discusses why and how economists have leveraged this powerful method to answer questions that were long thought unanswerable. In the vein of Freakonomics, Nudge, and The Tipping Point, the book takes the reader on a lively and engaging tour of some of the most fascinating natural experiments, explaining how they work, how they help social scientists answer questions, and what conclusions they reached. The experiments illuminate a wide range of timely issues in health, education, reproductive issues, and the environment, lending rich and much-needed nuance to the complex debates that shape today’s headlines.

This Is Worth Remembering

A practical method, backed by peer-reviewed research, for reimagining work to create your most distinctive, creative, energetic, and relatable professional self.In far too many organizations, the idea of bringing your 'full self' to the job is a liability.Emotion beyond enthusiasm for the task at hand is deemed unprofessional. Personal identity must be compressed into a carefully curated bio: relatable yet inoffensive.When people are conditioned to flatten the full social and emotional complexities of themselves, spirits dull and progress stalls, in life and in the workplace.But for a growing number of people, especially younger generations, this form of workplace culture no longer works. Surveys show that fewer individuals are willing to sacrifice their time and quality of life for a career, let alone an organization. With an increased focus on purpose, meaning, and mental health, many refuse to scrub their emotions, or the full range of their identities, to keep their professional lives separate.At the same time, in more progressive settings, the encouragement to bring people's full selves to work has sometimes unleashed more authenticity and personal revelation than managers and teams know how to handle.So how do we get it right?Lively and accessible, Human Mode features vibrant stories, expert insights, evidence-based techniques, and 'ah-ha' takeaways you can use immediately.Discover how to engage your inherent superpower - being immensely human - to unlock progress, connection, and achievement in your working life.

A challenge to incentivization as a dominant framework for understanding and governing people From corporate management and consumer behavior to public health and climate policy, incentives are widely treated as a neutral and effective way to shape how people act. In this book, Guus Dix shows that incentives are not simple policy nudges; they lull us into a passive understanding of ourselves as being merely responsive to changes others make to our environment. They foster a politics of incremental tweaks to a socially and ecologically destructive economic system that we are expected to accept without question. Dix argues that it is time to challenge the reign of incentives in contemporary science and public life. Dix traces the evolution of the incentive, from the engineering of performance charts and rewards for factory workers to combating gridlock at Britain’s National Health Service. He describes the function of incentives under socialism, theories of adjustment incentives developed at the Harvard Business School to manage employees, and incentivizing whole economies—both socialist and capitalist. He shows that incentivization is a distinct way of wielding power. Incentives have become part of a quasi-universal governing philosophy that keeps us from addressing such major issues as poverty and the climate crisis. Finally, Dix analyzes the limits of incentivization, arguing that being governed by incentives keeps us from considering government policies that have the potential to bring about meaningful and transformative change.

Discover how to adapt, adopt, and thrive in an AI-anxious era, written by the man with the compass for our maze Expecting the apocalypse around the corner? This book is your playbook to surviving the rise of machine learning. 71% of workers are anxious about AI. The good news: the machines still need you, and you can make them work for you. Don't Panic cuts through the noise, showing you exactly how this technology works and where it fails, and why your human judgment is more valuable than ever. Instead of focusing on technical skills or abstract predictions, author Nate B. Jones ("AI Nate") begins with the emotional reality behind AI anxiety, drawing on his 20-years experience in the tech industry. He's garnered trust from more than 1 million people to help them stay relevant in a rapidly changing technological landscape. AI might have a planet-sized brain, but just like Marvin the Android from The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy, it’s permanently stuck at factory settings. It can’t learn, it can’t adapt, and it can’t gain wisdom. This book reveals why AI's permanent blind spots make human judgment more valuable today than ever before.&nbsp; Worry less, and start owning your future.
