Описание книги

Global Environmental Careers Global Environmental Careers – The Worldwide Green Jobs Resource This book is the ideal guide to equipping you with the tools and know-how to develop an environmental career. It is filled with practical advice, case studies, personal profiles and top tips across the global environment sector. An essential resource for anyone, from school students to those who are already in work but dreaming of a more meaningful career. ‘This new book comes at exactly the right moment. There has never been a more critical time for effective, international action on our common ecological crisis, and success in that work requires a new generation of 21st Century environmental professionals.’ Kevin Doyle, Executive Director, Office of Career and Professional Development, Yale School of the Environment ‘As an experienced green career coach, the top questions I hear from green job seekers are, “What are the green jobs out there, which ones would be a good match, how do I get my foot in the door, and where do I find these jobs?” Taberham’s book answers all of these in a refreshingly approachable way.’ Lisa Yee-Litzenberg, President, Green Career Advisor LLC ‘One of the biggest challenges environmental career seekers face is understanding and muddling through the opportunities available to them based on their experience, education, and interest. Taberham’s book is a great resource to help people navigate their options and grab some tips for the career journey.’ Laura Thorne, The Environmental Career Coach ‘A fantastic book for those who are interested in pursuing a role in sustainability. Jam-packed with helpful resources, career insights, and real-life case studies this is a go-to resource for professionals who are launching their careers.’ Sharmila Singh, New Lens Consulting ‘Justin Taberham provides an impressive global overview of a multifaceted, ever-changing sector that continues to evolve rapidly due to advances in technology and knowledge, changes in funding and incentives, and shifts in priorities and laws.’ Carol L. McClelland, PhD, Author of Green Careers for Dummies
