About the Book

Wanted: Young and highly motivated workplace warriors. Some say finding employees with a solid work ethic is difficult, if not impossible. In reality, young people with the desire to succeed are everywhere, but they are too often hobbled by a simple lack of knowledge. The real world fundamentals they need aren't taught in the classroom, and many of these foundational concepts are difficult to explain in a meaningful way. That's the problem Viking's Guide To Pillaging the Real World was created to solve. The Viking's Guide is an insightful, energetic, and witty tale about work ethic and real world fundamentals for budding workplace warriors. It's about equipping capable but inexperienced individuals with essential tools such as initiative, persistence, and flexibility; and it sheds light on more complex concepts including work ethic, informal leadership, emotional intelligence, and the practical need for challenge.As a former smokejumper who fought wildfires throughout the U.S. and Canada, the author has a unique perspective on what it takes to succeed in a competitive and demanding work environment. Gaining entrance to the smokejumper tribe is a physical and mental trial of the highest order, and working among these hard-charging and highly dedicated individuals is an education in and of itself. Now that distinct educational experience has been translated it into a spirited story for those who are willing to compete for their own success. The book weaves a tale of calamitous adventure and personal growth via an eclectic cast of characters including Mad Hadley, Olga the She Bear, Feral Dave, Elmer the Abominable Viking, the Rizzotti twins, and a host of others. Through trials and tribulations the sometimes stumbling cast learns real world lessons with a heavy dose of dry humor and unpredictable wit. Some succeed and some fail, but through it all they wring out the most meaningful lessons of the working world. It's an engaging tale packed with invaluable insights and crafted in a memorable style, and most of all The Viking's Guide To Pillaging the Real World provides what young workplace warriors need most: a solid foundation based on work ethic, professional growth, and personal challenge.
