B. Arthur is Professor

individual career theory and collective action. N. Anand is

`Whether by choice or by chance, a growing proportion of the
population in major countries no longer have job security or career
paths within stable organizations. Career Creativity tackles all
the latest issues stemming from this major shift: the rise of
knowledge workers, the problem of achieving work/life balance, the
mixed blessing of being free agents, and the power of those with
talent in creative industries. The collective insights of
leading
scholars map a new intellectual territory that also has practical
implications for organizational and social policy.'
Rosabeth Moss Kanter, Harvard Business School, best-selling author
of Evolve!: Succeeding in the Digital Culture of Tomorrow
`This book is a fascinating and highly relevant collection . . .
that brings career theory and practice into line with the rapidly
changing world of work that we are all experiencing.'
Edgar H. Schein, Sloan Fellows Professor of Management Emeritus,
MIT Sloan School of Management
`Creativity is both cause and effect of successful, effective, and
meaningful careers - and even a way of viewing careers. The
landscape of careers is changing. We need to think "outside the
box" to be ready. This collection . . . explodes the box. Get ready
for the future and read this book.'
Richard E. Boyatzis, Professor, Weatherhead School of Management,
Case Western Reserve University
