About this title

Synopsis

Imagine having a career coach in your back pocket-without paying hundreds or even thousands of dollars in fees. That's exactly what Make Waves: A Career Pathing Guide to Stand Out, Stay Employable, and Sail Ahead delivers.

Drawing on two decades of curating the best tools, assessments, and resources (many of them free or low-cost), workplace expert and HR/OD leader Theresa Hummel-Krallinger gives you a step-by-step playbook for managing your career with confidence.

Through her proven, boat-inspired model, you'll learn how to:

Set your direction (rudder): define purpose-driven goals that guide your journey.
Strengthen your foundation (hull): continually build skills and experience that make you market-ready.
Raise your visibility (sails): develop your personal brand and credibility so opportunities find you.
Build momentum (motor): grow and leverage the right relationships and networks.

Packed with practical strategies, exercises, and curated resources, Make Waves is more than a book-it's a career insurance policy. If you apply the principles inside, you'll never feel stuck or unprepared in your work life again.

Here's what people are saying:

"Practical. Powerful. Personal. Theresa Hummel-Krallinger has created the ultimate career guide for anyone who wants to stop drifting and start driving their career boat with confidence. 'Make Waves' is your career insurance policy for the future of work."

--David Newman, Author of "Do It! Marketing" and "Do It! Selling"

"Theresa's 'Make Waves' comes from the heart. Her sailing metaphor sets you on a course for both employment success and successful employment."
