About the Book

The Career
Story Problem

Your resume feels solid. Your elevator pitch sounds clear. The network seems strong. But you just can't quite pull off that career pivot you've been attempting. The issue is likely not your credentials. It's that your professional story is hard for others to follow.

NOTABLE gives you a practical framework for career transition branding, making your career story legible through professional rebranding principles that turned around Domino's, Airbnb, and Dyson, and field-tested across 600+ workshops with over 70,000 professionals in 70+ countries.

  • Turn a non-linear path into an asset. Build a career story that makes your transitions legible, not suspicious.
  • Apply brand relaunch principles to yourself. The same strategies behind Domino's, Airbnb, and Dyson — adapted for your career.
  • Craft a pitch that sounds like you. Verbal and written brand assets that feel genuinely, distinctly yours.
  • Own your online presence. Audit and refresh every digital touchpoint so they reinforce your new direction.
  • Expand your visibility. Build credibility inside your organisation, across your industry, and beyond your existing network.

Frequently Asked

Career Transition
Branding, Answered

Personal branding involves defining and reinforcing your unique knowledge, skills, and experiences into a clear narrative that makes sense to people in the industry or role you're moving into. I crafted NOTABLE's framework specifically for mid-career professionals switching career paths, not new graduates building a brand from scratch.

Updating your resume or LinkedIn is only part of personal branding (which I cover in Part II of NOTABLE). Career transition branding is the strategy that underlies those material updates: you first decide on your narrative and which specific experiences to selectively spotlight so your transition story makes sense to a new audience, before you touch a single document.

Repositioning yourself isn't all that different from how brands like Airbnb and Dyson use brand relaunch principles to evolve. NOTABLE walks you through a 4-Part Personal Brand Blueprint to help you map your past experience and skills to your future ambitions.

Mid- to senior-level professionals, typically 10 to 20 years into a corporate career, who are pivoting roles or industries while still employed, or repositioning after a layoff. If you've built real credibility and now need to create a clear transition story, this book is for you.

Joseph's currently developing and writing NOTABLE. Join the newsletter below and you'll be the first to know when it's released. In the meantime, you'll also get useful tips on navigating career transitions.
