Have you ever felt like you're treading water professionally, having reached the limits of what you can achieve? If so, it might be time for a reset. Careers progress through distinct phases: you climb the career ladder, change direction or start your own business, and eventually retire. As different as these phases are, so too are the rules of success that govern them. To keep succeeding, you must mentally shift gears and realign yourself accordingly along the way.
Passionate "career technician" Christian Greiser is here to help you do just that. In this engaging and humorous new book, he draws on insights from his many years of experience as an executive coach and incorporates research findings, case studies, and exercises to show how you can shift your mindset to achieve success and fulfillment in the next phase of your career.

Leseproben

Praise for
Remove, Replace, Restart
Career journeys today are more like winding, multileg road trips than the traditional ladder of yesterday. The formulas and three-step processes from the past no longer apply. Instead, Remove, Replace, Restart offers a highly relatable and practical guide for all of us to reflect on our careers and take action to make “work” work. —CHRISTOPH SCHWEIZER, Chief Executive Officer, Boston Consulting Group A fresh and stimulating look at a field that so often seems to be dominated by processes and templates, Christian’s book brings humanity and wisdom to bear in equal proportions. Written in a cheerful, practical, and engaging style, this is a fresh and welcome addition to the resources available to those of us who might otherwise flounder in the face of career challenges and crises. —GUY ASHTON, Chief Executive Officer, Meyler Campbell Every leader goes through transitions in his or her life. This book is a wise and practical guide to navigating these transitions successfully. Christian writes both thoughtfully and engagingly, making this a very refreshing and hugely valuable book for each of us. —HARISH BHAT, Brand Custodian, Tata Sons; marketer, author, and columnist To deal impactfully and professionally with all the ambivalences and challenges in the business world requires constant development in leading others and leading oneself. Christian Greiser shows, with a light touch, how we actively and courageously decide to look at, reflect upon, and question ourselves. Drawing from his unique perspective through working with leaders, his extensive business insights, and his personal experience, he invites us to push our own boundaries consistently and to reframe the accountability of the leadership role in a strategic, disciplined, and also encouraging way. —DR. THELSE GODEWERTH, member of the Board of Management, and Labour Director, Rolls-Royce Power Systems AG I have been fortunate to work with Christian on my own career journey, and I am so pleased to see that he has decided to write this book so that everyone can benefit from his wisdom and insight. I recommend this book to every leader and aspiring leader because they will enjoy Christian’s ability to interweave his experience, case studies, and good humor into practical advice. —ANDREW BELSHAW, Chief Executive Officer, Gamma Communications plc. Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance: An Inquiry into Values is a timeless classic where Robert Pirsig studies the concept of quality. I have read and reread it several times over decades. Recently, I discovered Christian Greiser’s Remove, Replace, Restart, a book that struck similar chords in my mind. However, its topic is not quality in general but the quality of your career. The book is relevant for everybody who puts value on conscious career planning. It enables you to detect an overzealous inner driver that might push you to burnout. It teaches you to turn breakdowns into insights that allow you to build not just a great career but a beautiful life. My copy is already quite tattered from frequent rereading and doing the helpful exercises, and I have gifted this wonderful book to several friends who are shaping their own careers or those of their children, coworkers, or clients. —PROF. DR. FRANZ J. GIESSIBL, nanoscience pioneer, University of Regensburg Christian Greiser’s book certainly shifts gears! It outlines a simple and easy-to-follow pathway of how to switch from the passenger’s seat to the driver’s seat by mastering your professional goals while aligning them with what truly fulfills you. It encourages you to try and test, to experiment with who you could be and what life could look like. While backed by hard facts, studies, and numbers, it encourages you to trust the somewhat intangible gut feeling every leader has at some stage that “something is not quite right” and convert it to a powerful tool of self-steering. —CHRISTINA VIRZÍ, founder and Chief Executive Officer, Virzí & Co KMG If you want to achieve more and overcome the typical challenges of a top management career, this book is the ideal read. The real-life case studies shared from a gifted coach perspective will softly urge you to do some introspection. Christian has beautifully intertwined the merits of the six Rs, particularly remove, replace, and restart to rejuvenate and continue to grow and pursue one’s dream. —ANIL JHANJI, Chief Commercial Officer, Tata Steel UK Limited Many leaders are at an inflection point, learning how to lead their organizations and progress their careers after so much volatility and uncertainty in our lives the past few years. Christian Greiser’s book provides exactly the guidance needed to navigate this time, pairing a lighthearted rendition of relatable stories with encouragement to reflect and self-realize a path forward via his six Rs approach. —LAURA JULIANO, North American Operations Practice Lead, Boston Consulting Group Think career guides are difficult to digest and even more difficult to put into practice? Not in this case: you are invited to observe others’ ineffective behavior in entertaining case studies as a charming mirror in which … I started recognizing my patterns almost by accident. And the suggested coping strategies are just as easy to digest: they come within the case study, supplemented with a quick explanation of the underlying model. [Remove, Replace, Restart] feels like a beach read … while being great food for thought at the same time. —DR. TOBIAS KEITEL, member of the Corporate Board of Management; President and Chief Executive Officer, Voith Hydro Many have looked to tackle the challenge of present-day management: at the core, executives are simply overwhelmed. Christian Greiser’s book presents the challenge and solutions in an engaging, easy-to-read, and motivating way. It is a pleasure to read and, more importantly, the examples are salient and relevant, leaving a lasting impression to jump-start personal change for the reader. —DIANA DIMITROVA, Managing Director and Partner, Boston Consulting Group Remove, Replace, Restart is truly career- and life-changing! The hands-on advice in the book is so insightful and impactful that it changed the way I think about my job, my career, and what I want to achieve in the next five years. The case studies gave me a new and fresh perspective on my management style and my inner workings. I absolutely recommend the read to anyone, irrespective of which stage of their career and life they are at—the book has ton of insights for everyone. A must-read! —TIMUR YUMUSAKLAR, President and Chief Executive Officer, F. Schumacher & Co. Christian Greiser’s book is a wonderful and fun-to-read guide for everyone’s journey through the career jungle—where, more and more, straight-line careers will be the exception rather than the rule. I wish I could have read it earlier: I turned from a “Wall Street lawyer” to a “management consultant” to a DeepTech start-up founder during my career. With Christian’s book, a lot of self-doubt and unstructured thinking could have been avoided. If you are considering a career change and are holding this book in your hand, then you are lucky. Go out and try new things—and this book will be a great advisor all the way. —TRINH LE-FIEDLER, Chief Executive Officer and founder, Nomitri You might be skeptical at first when you get your hands on the 300th career guide. But this book is really different, especially because of the case studies, in which Christian Greiser comes to surprising conclusions with very unusual analyses of clients’ problems. While reading, one sometimes catches oneself anticipating the usual career advisor’s answer, and then stumbles over a sentence that takes a day to think about. Great book, best read in small stages so that you give yourself enough time to reflect thoroughly on what you have read. —FREDUN MAZAHERI, Chief Risk Officer and Chief IT Officer, Pictet Europe In a time where 95 percent of companies find that they will fundamentally change over the next five years and two-thirds of their leaders assume that they will be facing the most challenging moments in their career, Christian Greiser’s book comes at the right point. Organizational change typically involves some personal “rebooting.” Christian Greiser’s very pragmatic approach will help any leader reflect, readjust, and rewire their own path. Super helpful, perhaps if you are planning to leave your current employer, and definitely if you want to reboot. —ISABEL POENSGEN, Sr. Executive Coach With a career as a top manager, BCG Senior Partner Emeritus, and Executive Coach, Christian Greiser has all the skills to enable today’s executive to kick-start their engine of success. If you do not have a chance to get a coaching from him, at least read this book! —PROF. DR. VEIT ETZOLD, best-selling author, speaker, and managing director, Strategy & Storytelling Christian Greiser masterfully elucidates the interplay between career highs and lows, while introducing mindfulness as a vital, yet often overlooked, resource for navigating the managerial realm. Drawing from his personal narrative, he crafts an authentic and valuable coaching approach that resonates with readers....
