Through personal experience and extensive interviews of leading experts in various stages of their career, the authors provide successful road maps and building blocks for “idealists” looking to begin a career or to those who wish for a mid-career change (p. 1). Ranging from “identifying your cause” (p. 13), to tips for successfully networking, and a comprehensive guide to all the relevant organizations in the field, this book offers an impressive insight into a diverse and growing field. This is also the second edition of the book and newer innovations (social media) or landscape changes (economic downturn) have been added throughout the book, along with the timeless career advice.
