Job Security is A Myth: Why Everyone Is Expendable-and What to Build Instead of Job Security (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798198374454)

Job security was never the real promise.

In a workplace shaped by layoffs, restructuring, automation, AI adoption, shifting priorities, and economic pressure, being capable is no longer the same thing as being protected.

Job Security Is a Myth offers a practical, clear-eyed guide to building career resilience without panic, cynicism, or performative reinvention. Instead of treating employment as protection, this book helps readers build portable leverage: skills, evidence, awareness, adaptability, demand signals, and options that survive beyond one employer.

Using the STEADY framework, Artemis Ellis helps professionals understand what actually makes a career more resilient in uncertain systems.

Inside, readers will learn how to:

* separate personal worth from organizational usefulness
* build proof of value before they need it
* understand the economics around their role
* stop confusing loyalty with leverage
* identify portable strengths that travel across employers
* maintain relationships before crisis
* watch workplace signals without spiraling
* design backup plans while calm

This is not a book about fear.

It is a book about steadiness.

For anyone who has watched work change and wondered what still belongs to them, Job Security Is a Myth offers a calmer way to think, prepare, and build what lasts.
