About this listen

Read by the author, Chris Hirst.

'This book will give you clarity, confidence, and a serious edge . . . The straight-talking, practical career guide we all need right now' – Chris Donnelly, host of Waking Up With Chris Donnelly and Secret Leaders

From the bestselling author of No Bullsh*t Leadership comes the ultimate guide to career success.

Success isn’t luck. Whether you’re at the start of your career, an ambitious young leader, an entrepreneur or on the brink of the boardroom, the fundamentals that make for career success don’t change. This book strips away the jargon, clickbait and corporate bullsh*t to reveal what really works, including how to:

• Get hired (and get ahead)
• Become an indispensable team member
• Manage your boss (instead of being micro-managed)
• Network like a pro (without feeling fake)
• Negotiate the pay rises you deserve
• Maximise your productivity
• Work hard without burning out

Nobody cares about your career as much as you do – so take control, cut through the noise and make yourself Indispensable.

'Cuts through the noise and reminds you what really matters at work . . . No-fluff, real-world advice that shifts how you show up – and stay indispensable' – Harpreet Kaur, winner of the The Apprentice UK
