Finding work today requires more than a strong résumé or a confident interview. Hiring decisions are shaped by technology, online visibility, and how clearly we understand and communicate our own experience.

Work Matters: It Takes Technology, Insight And Strategies For Job Seekers In This Evolving World is the revised edition of my earlier work on career navigation and professional clarity. This edition reflects changes in how people search for work, how organizations evaluate candidates, and how individuals can adapt thoughtfully to a shifting employment landscape.

Rather than offering quick fixes or rigid formulas, Work Matters focuses on helping readers understand the systems and patterns that influence modern hiring. It explores the role of technology, communication, and self-awareness in shaping opportunity—and encourages a more deliberate, grounded approach to career decisions.

This book is written for people who want to:

Understand how digital platforms influence hiring decisions
Present their experience clearly and professionally
Use tools like LinkedIn with intention rather than noise
Navigate change without losing direction
Think strategically about work, not just react to circumstances

At its core, Work Matters is not only about finding the next role. It is about understanding how work fits into a larger professional life shaped by change, growth, and evolving priorities.
