Learn Like a Lobster

How to adapt and grow in your career

Staying relevant and resilient is essential to success in any role, but it can feel like we’re too caught up in the day-to-day demands of working life to pursue opportunities to learn and grow. This leaves us feeling stuck and unsure where to start.

In Learn Like a Lobster, Sunday Times bestselling authors Helen Tupper and Sarah Ellis show us how to unlock more time in our working lives and use the work we already do to develop our skills and master new ones.

And lobsters are the surprising role model for accelerating your ambitions.

* Lobsters never stop growing - and your potential is limitless too
* Lobsters grow through hard moments - use your challenges to uncover new learning
* Lobsters fuel their own growth - don't wait for career opportunities, create your own

Whether you’re someone who is ambitious to grow or you’re not sure about where to start, Learn Like a Lobster offers energising practical tools and actions that you can start using right away.

Because when you learn, you grow.

‘Everything you'd expect from the duo behind squiggly careers - practical, genuinely useful and a book you'll keep coming back to’ Dorie Clark, bestselling author of The Long Game

‘The manual for anyone who wants to not just stay ahead but be at the forefront of the fast-paced and ever-changing world of work’ Lisa Smosarski, Editor-in-Chief, Stylist

This is the book for you, for your team, and for everyone who wants to stay alert and ahead of the curve in a rapidly changing world. I defy anyone to resist Helen and Sarah's verve, down to earth writing and practical frameworks to make 'learning like a lobster' part of your daily routine
