Escape From Cubicle Nation: From Corporate Prisoner To Thriving Entrepreneur (2009) - Plot & Excerpts
What I liked most about this book is that Pamela Sim tells it like it is! With insight, humour, research and experience she explains both the up and downsides of quitting your day job to follow your passion and make a living from it.Whilst highlighting the opportunities and potential pitfalls, she provides a great resource with helpful tools to know what to look out for and what to do.As an executive career and lifestyle coach I'll certainly be recommending Cubicle Nation to many of my clients who are contemplating their great escape. Escape from Cubicle Nation was my second audiobook experience. After having a great first experience with audiobooks, I was excited to listen to another and what I sadly found out the second time around was that not all books can make the successful leap to audio. Pamela Slim offered great advice in her book; however, the narration of it came off as dry and redundant. Sandra Burr, the narrator, often states when a "slash" or "parentheses" were used which can get annoying. Also, depending on where the to-be entrepreneur is in their quest to start their own business, some chapters and paragraphs are better skipped over or skimmed through which is obviously hard to do with an audiobook because the reader can't see what's coming next. Although I have not looked over the print version, I would recommend that people wanting to read this book choose print over audio.
