Careers aren't linear, and they don't become successful by accident. They take preparation, ability, time, working smart and patience... But what if you could learn the hard career lessons long before you ever have to face these difficult obstacles yourself? Well, the answer is here, Work Lessons 101 provides you with the blueprint to launching a successful career and manoeuvring around sensitive work situations.

Fortune 500 Project Manager and Career Coach Sabrina Woodworth has compiled over 400 Work Lessons covering 50 topics critical to navigating a successful career. The book covers the full spectrum of career development, from discussing the 'Why' to learning the 'How.'

Many people struggle to progress forward in their careers.
