Über diesen Titel

In a tech-dominated world, the most needed degrees are the most surprising: the liberal arts.

Did you take the right classes in college? Will your major help you get the right job offers? For more than a decade, the national spotlight has focused on science and engineering as the only reliable choice for finding a successful postgrad career. Our destinies have been reduced to a caricature: learn to write computer code or end up behind a counter, pouring coffee. Quietly, though, a different path to success has been taking shape. In You Can Do Anything, George Anders explains the remarkable power of a liberal arts education - and the ways it can open the door to thousands of cutting-edge jobs every week.

The key insight: curiosity, creativity, and empathy aren't unruly traits that must be reined in. You can be yourself as an English major and thrive in sales. You can segue from anthropology into the booming new field of user research, from classics into management consulting, and from philosophy into high-stakes investing. At any stage of your career, you can bring a humanist's grace to our rapidly evolving high-tech future. And if you know how to attack the job market, your opportunities will be vast.

In this audiobook you will learn why resume writing is fading in importance and why "telling your story" is taking its place. You will learn how to create jobs that don't exist yet and to translate your campus achievements into a new style of expression that will make employers' eyes light up. You will discover why people who start in eccentric first jobs - and then make their own luck - so often race ahead of peers whose postcollege hunts focus only on security and starting pay. You will be ready for anything.

Kritikerstimmen

"George Anders has provided a compelling and decisive answer to the recurring question, 'What is the value proposition of a liberal arts education?' Students should have this book in their backpack or on their iPads. So should their parents, teachers, and our policy-makers." (Frederick M. Lawrence, CEO of Phi Beta Kappa Society)
"Anders shows us precisely why majors like philosophy, history, and anthropology teach the skills employers can't outsource to robots and software...students should feel not only reassurance or permission but an actual obligation to go there, for their own sake, and for the sake of us all.'" (Julia Lythcott-Haims, author of How to Raise an Adult and former dean of freshmen at Stanford University)
"Utterly fascinating and massively important. George Anders peers into his signature crystal ball and paints a portrait of the future of work that's as compelling as it is provocative." (Adam Grant, Wharton professor and New York Times best-selling author of Give and Take and Originals)
