Ignite Your Career!

Thank you, Kris, for taking your decades of experience and distilling insights into a readable and useful ‘how to manual’ to get the most out of ourselves by finding the right, meaningful career. Whether early in your professional life, or at a critical mid-life gut-check, this book will help remind you how and why you can make a difference.

Ignite Your Career is the career playbook I wish I had when I graduated. It will help any graduate structure the ambiguous and important choices they face about what to do next. I was lucky enough to be coached by Kris early in my career—her book is the next best thing.

Ignite Your Career is an easy and informative read for anyone getting ready to start their career. I wish I could take this book and jump into a time machine and arrive 20 years ago. Kris Holmes has worked magic by demystifying career planning and sharing steps to help land your dream job.

We spend so much time in schools asking students to focus on the journey rather than the destination. It is wonderful to find a resource for young people that lets them think about the destination and gives them all of the practical necessities to get to that destination without undermining all that is so valuable in a meaningful and well-examined life.

Ignite Your Career will help you…Right. Now. Careers are a journey, and there is great value in understanding your starting point—your interests, not merely what others say you should do…and importantly, your inherent skills. Kris has years of experience guiding exceptional people toward the right ‘fit.’ Ignite Your Career is packed with clear and concise guidance and sage advice that you will not find elsewhere. Lots of wisdom in these pages!

The world is absurd; we are forced to make profound decisions that will impact our life’s direction and standard of living for decades to come long before we are emotionally equipped to do so. I never know what to say to students, but thank God Kris Holmes does. Her book is wise, engaging, and more importantly, set up to guide you step by step as you navigate that first job, that first decade of work experience, and to do so by staying true to yourself.

Having reviewed a hundred-plus career self-help books, I say don’t put this one down! Kris Holmes’ recruiting experience cuts through the job hunt noise into the hidden gems of accessing company culture and finding ‘best fit.’ Like none other, she’ll convince you to cancel that ‘you should be’ advice. She leads you to amplify natural aptitudes as your competitive advantage to find your flow, voice, and most lasting rewards. Turn pages to experience a personal career coach, a mentor, and a recruiter’s eyes.
