Before You Say "I Quit!" is an essential tool for anyone who is frustrated with his or her job situation and has at least considered the idea of resigning. This book provides an organized approach to deciding when--and if--quitting is the best choice and how to implement the decision. It takes you through a step-by-step evaluative process that includes quizzes and worksheets to help you make the correct choices at critical junctures in your work life. Holloway and Bishop offer a complete blend of solid career advice and sound psychological counseling to help you determine the source of your job dissatisfaction, develop new job options, devise a career/life plan, make the most of your final days at a job, handle exit interviews, and answer interviewers' questions as to why you left your last position. Book jacket.
This is the second time I am ordering this book...lost the first copy. I am again considering a job change, and want to make a well-thought-out decision because the last thing I want to do is move-on and continue to be dissatisfied. This book is easy to follow and provides an excellent framework for factors that should be considered prior to making a workplace change. It helped me define the pros and cons of my current workplace and define what I am looking for in my new position. This book is good for people looking to stay in the same profession but interested in leaving their current company or moving to a new profession and for people looking to move to a new position within the same company. It's a relatively short, easy reading book with straightforward relevant exercises (unlike several other 400+ page books of this genre).
