STAFF PICKS:
1. 📖 Reskilling America 📖
Though published in 2017, this book is an absolute must-read for anyone looking to thrive in today’s dynamic job market. “Reskilling America” by Katherine S. Newman and Hella Winston highlights the critical role of vocational training and apprenticeships in building a robust workforce. It’s a model that’s worked wonders for countries like Germany and Austria - so why isn’t America fully on board? It’s time we rethink how we prepare our workforce for the future.
2. 📚 The EOS Life 📚
Building on the theme of preparation and growth, Gino Wickman’s “The EOS Life” offers a profound look at balancing professional success with personal fulfillment. At Gakuto Club, Wickman’s “Traction” series has been a cornerstone in how we operate. “The EOS Life” extends these principles beyond the workplace, providing us with a roadmap to streamline our efforts and align our actions with our core values. Just as “Reskilling America” challenges us to rethink workforce development, “The EOS Life” challenges us to rethink how we live and work, ensuring that our pursuits lead to both professional success and personal happiness.
