Our world is changing dramatically and so is the roadmap for our personal and career success in the professional services industry. The book is a story about a classic talented and ambitious director at KPMG, Michael. Although he excels professionally, Michael is forced to realize that the times were indeed changing. Following a discouraging annual feedback meeting, he is suddenly confronted with the reality that he must make a different kind of effort in order to maintain a successful career and help KMPG achieve the firm's vision of becoming the clear choice for clients and the most talented employees. In order to ensure his continued success, Michael has to set out on an unusual journey, escorted by an intelligent, pleasant and assertive consultant named Rona who will guide him through the five lands. In each land, Michael will meet different people, some of them quite strange and surreal. Through these experiences, he will gather insights that are indispensable for his continued success in the 21st century at KPMG. Joining Michael on his journey to the five lands, the reader will be introduced to an updated roadmap for success, where every step is based on the previous one and plays a significant part in the journey. The book is uniquely written to suit the culture, language, and notion of the KPMG Story and is based on numerous groundbreaking theories and research on learning and development.
