So Good They Can't Ignore You
Cal Newport's clearly-written manifesto flies in the face of conventional wisdom by suggesting that it should be a person's talent and skill - and not necessarily their passion - that determines their career path. Newport, who graduated from Dartmouth College (Phi Beta Kappa) and earned a PhD. from MIT, contends that trying to find what drives us, instead of focusing on areas in which we naturally excel, is ultimately harmful and frustrating to job seekers. The title is a direct quote from comedian Steve Martin who, when once asked why he was successful in his career, immediately replied: "Be so good they can't ignore you" and that's the main basis for Newport's book. Skill and ability trump passion. Inspired by former Apple CEO Steve Jobs' famous Stanford University commencement speech in which Jobs urges idealistic grads to chase their dreams, Newport takes issue with that advice, claiming that not only is thsi advice Pollyannish, but that Jobs himself never followed his own advice. From there, Newport presents compelling scientific and contemporary case study evidence that the key to one's career success is to find out what you do well, where you have built up your 'career capital,' and then to put all of your efforts into that direction.
Junior to Senior
As a programmer, you've spent plenty of time learning technical and programming skills. Junior engineers-and even some who have been in it a long time-must constantly focus on improving their "hard" technical skills. But writing code is only part of our job as software developers. It's equally essential for developers to cultivate the soft skills critical for adding value for their team, their company, their customers, and their career-and it's often neglected. Junior to Senior is one of only a few books that gives practical advice on the soft skills needed to thrive as an engineer: · Dealing with lack of confidence · Learning from others and by reading unfamiliar code · Managing your time · Working effectively with your manager · Communicating clearly with business stakeholders and writing clear documentation · Understanding different ways to add value for a company and its customers · Managing risks and recovering from mistakes · Dealing with conflict · Balancing the demands of work and personal life ... and much more. Improvements in these areas are important milestones on the journey from junior to senior software developer. Junior to Senior is filled with insights, from one engineer to another, to guide you along that path. Whether you studied Computer Science, graduated from a coding bootcamp, or are a self-taught programmer, this book will help you manage yourself, build value, and earn the confidence of your team to take on roles with greater responsibility and impact.
