EXCERPT FROM FORWARD
"Plan B? What happened to Plan A? Plan A must not be working for you. Gene King can tell you why. Plan A is the “tried and true.” And it’s just as predictable and boring as that cliché.
With “Plan B: Separate Yourself from the Herd,” Gene King takes you through his own experiences with Plan A. He was on that path to unemployment himself in 2008, just when the economy was beginning to produce more jobless benefits than payroll checks. Gene suddenly found himself competing for a single position with dozens of the most qualified managers in the field.
Adhering to Plan A, his professionally written resume in hand, he put on his new suit and tie and set out for human relations offices in some of the companies still advertising openings. But Gene got the same results so many thousands of unemployed executives and managers have been experiencing since the recession: the indifferently written rejection letter… if there was, indeed, even a reply.
So Gene came up with his own Plan B. It was not to just get to the front of the line at the HR office. His Plan B was to be sitting across the desk from the chief executive who could make the difference. But how to do that?
This book is about the creative approach he used so successfully to come up with a strategy that worked profitably for him."
