Whether you are a new employee or you have been at work for years, if you want greater satisfaction and more rewards from your job, the good news is it's not about working harder, but rather changing the way you think about work. This is your guide to the unspoken rules and the secrets that will make you shine in any organization: business, charity, medical, or educational. The author, Shirley Peddy, incorporates the universal secrets that helped her develop her career, increase her starting salary as a forty-year old temporary employee writing training modules for a major corporation, by a factor of eight, and receive numerous promotions in the process. The secrets and rules are revealed through the story of Rachel Hanson, a four year employee about to quit her job, and her encounter with the man who helped recruit her. Jack convinces Rachel to stay for six months by promising to reveal the truth about winning at work. He invites Rachel to read a parable he is writing about Keli, a young tribesman in the rain forest who feels he does not fit in, and the Elder who teaches him the secrets of the jungle. Within the pages of this compelling story, the reader will learn -The difference between torches and lamps -How to think about yourself in the world of work -How to handle challenging situations and difficult people -The four steps to building your reputation -How to transform the job you have into the job you want -How to build a network and why you need one -How to relate to people of different communities -How to land on your feet during a downsizing or other major change -How to understand your organization and why it matters -Why having purpose is important and how to discover yours The original book, Secrets of the Jungle, was written twenty years ago. Much has changed since that time. Shine speaks to those differences.
