Come join to meet the author Miroo Kim and learn more about her new book, The Placeholder: The Place to Go to Create Your Noble Work. If you want to have a new perspective to rethink your career, this will be a time-well spent evening!

About the Book:

Nobody needs to be told how miserable working in a career that drains us is. 

It usually starts with an unease. After 10-20 years of working in the same career, you begin to feel something is off. For the first time, you’re starting to crave a completely different thing in your career, but you aren't sure what it is or where to start.

What are we doing wrong? What can we do to free ourselves from this perpetual sense of emptiness and live a more fulfilling work life?

Welcome to The Placeholder! The Place to Go to Create Your Noble Work. 

The answer is not to “follow our passion.” Successful career changers don't follow the conventional 'reflect, then act' model. They reverse it: they act, then reflect on what those actions reveal.
