Publisher's summary
Create a career on your terms
Whether you’ve been in your job for a few months or a few decades, you’ve likely battled feelings of dissatisfaction, frustration, and even boredom. In addition to feeling underwhelmed in your career, despite how successful it may appear to others, you know that relying fully on a corporate job for your livelihood today is riskier than ever.
Many of today’s working professionals are blindly navigating their careers and ignoring modern challenges like stagnating wage growth, enormous student debt, AI, globalization, and fears of automation. Compounding matters, most career experts are still offering advice as if it’s 1980, and that makes following their outdated direction dangerous and irresponsible.
It's time to take back control of your career
This complex new world of work can make you feel hopeless, stuck, or worse, like you’re going about your career all wrong, without a specific, proven plan to get from where you are to where you want to be. But all is not lost!
With the right skills and insights, you can build a career on your terms and live your life as fully and meaningfully as you desire. That is what Unboxed is all about.
Unboxed will:
- Give you career clarity
- Help you understand why you feel unengaged in your job
- Show you how to be proactive and defend against automation, AI, and more
- Teach you the proven three-step plan to take back control of your career
- Provide a detailed workbook to successfully complete the three-step plan
- Give you the confidence and roadmap to finally get where you want to be in your life

Rand Fishkin, the founder and former CEO of Moz, reveals how traditional Silicon Valley "wisdom" leads far too many startups astray, with the transparency and humor that his hundreds of thousands of blog readers have come to love. Everyone knows how a startup story is supposed to go: A young, brilliant entrepreneur has a cool idea, drops out of college, defies the doubters, overcomes all odds, makes billions, and becomes the envy of the technology world. This is not that story. It's not that things went badly for Rand Fishkin; they just weren't quite so Zuckerberg-esque.
