{"product_id":"9781496967435","title":"Transitions: A Field Guide for Military Professionals and Veterans Seeking Leadership Positions in the Business World","description":"More than one million service-members will leave the military and transition into civilian life over the next several years, according to a recent Government Accountability Office report.  Robert R. Ulin, who retired from the Army as a colonel, knows that it’s hard to make a smooth transition to employment as a civilian. Geared for veterans age forty-five to fifty-five, he wrote this guidebook to help you:  • prepare for the job search; • sell your skills at interviews; • adjust to a culture where leadership is persuasive instead of directive; • leverage your talents to climb the corporate ladder.  You’ll also get a variety of tools in the appendixes, including a transition self-assessment, a transition task list, a job-hunting process for the military mind, and a transition checklist.  As a veteran, you know you can see tasks through to completion and exhibit strong leadership skills and professionalism, but it’s not always easy to translate these skills into a civilian world. Take the first step in becoming your own commander, and get an action plan to successfully navigate Transitions.","brand":"AuthorHouse","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47164832973040,"sku":"9781496967435","price":4.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781496967435_p0.jpg?v=1763668265","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781496967435","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
