His latest book is an unorthodox guide to self-employment, identifying the issues that will make or break you as your own boss. During more than three decades of successfully sustaining independent work, he has advised some of the world's best-known companies and created a patented method of evaluating and prioritizing alternatives that has also been adapted for helping people make better career choices.
