Abstract

A new book about career transitions argues that introspection should take a back seat to doing and experimenting. Read the HMU interview with Herminia Ibarra, a professor at INSEAD in France and the author of Working Identity: Unconventional Strategies for Reinventing Your Career (Harvard Business School Press, 2002), and Stephen A Marini, a professor of religion at Wellesley College. Their recommendations of trial and error fly in the face of standard career advice. But, their ideas might just help you figure out what you were really meant to do with your career.
