is the time when your job was secure; gone are the days when your
employer cared about you; and all too often, gone are the days of
finding satisfaction through your job. This new environment requires
new rules. Fire your boss means no longer relying on your manager
or your company for economic security. Instead, Stephen Pollan shows
you how to put yourself in charge of your working life. In this thought-provoking,
counterintuitive career guide, Stephen presents a program and exercises
that give you the confidence, power and will to achieve the life of
your dreams. And, as the icing on the cake, your boss will love you
for it!

- This is a guide to reinventing your life. A second act
can mean changing careers, moving to a more desirable part of the
country (or world), starting a business, or dropping everything to
pursue a life dream, whether it's writing a novel, adopting a child,
or traveling the world with a backpack and fishing pole. Your guide,
Stephen Pollan, knows first-hand about second acts, as he has reinvented
his own life several times over.
- "Stephen Pollan has been a wise and knowledgeable
guide in my own second act; he also happens to be my father-in-law,
and his counsel and encouragement helped me convert my own fear and
uncertainty into optimism and enthusiasm for continued personal growth.
I am confident he can do the same for you." — Michael
J. Fox
- "Second Acts teaches how to achieve what others
think or say is impossible."
— Christopher Reeve

You can have a second act, and Stephen M. Pollan shows you how." —
Joan Lunden
- "Stephen Pollan and Mark Levine show us that
it's never too late to stage a heckuva comeback! Second Acts is the
blueprint for living that motto." — Al Roker
