The purpose of this book is to identify bottlenecks for young financial professionals’ career development. This is not another “how-to” written by a life coach or a business trainer whose professional development went far from the corporate financial practitioner’s world. Instead, this book offers what those do not: a voice from the trenches—the real-life experience and hard-earned wisdom of how certain actions, situations, and decisions can lead to targeted practical results. This book has no ambition to become a “that’s how you do it” manual or a book of recipes to boost one’s career. In fact, it is written using elements of the science fiction genre to invite you to think about your future goals and assess your current skills without the pressure of making an immediate career decision. This book explains how you are the only person who knows your true abilities, knows how to apply them, and knows what you really want. So take a minute and listen to that person inside you, just like the heroes of this book do.
