Schools, companies and organizations are constantly pursuing ways to build their products or services to meet customer demands and needs. Every management theory agrees with this principle. Corporations are always looking to the market or the development arena in which they operate. They want to make sure that they are adding value to the right niche or segment in the sector.
But, what about our young people? What about us? How can we make sure that the skills and abilities that we are teaching and fostering are the ones that the market or society wants or expects? How can we ensure that we are preparing our young people suitably for a job recruitment process, a potential promotion in their careers or a new job in another company or sector?
In this book, we reveal an amazing uncomplicated way to enhance your personal skills to prepare for the future – by training yourself to add value through Seven Areas of Growth.
The ideas proposed in the book will enable you to add creative value wherever you go; and … they work! We have witnessed how some people have added value in their personal and professional lives in each Area of Growth and, we share their experiences with you.
You can also learn about the experiences of a successful recruiter and ideas on how to make presentations before a very demanding audience.
The book was initially aimed at young people about to enter the job market, but after receiving positive feedback from readers from a range of age groups (27 and 67 years), there was a consensus that this book would also be suitable for educators of all ages who want to help enriching personal and professional skills and so, prepareing for a rewarding future.

Project: 7-17 THE EXPERIENCESatisfying. A versatile and well-structured book; an ideal reminder of those basic aspects to which we don’t pay enough attention and which we ought to do more often.
Project: 7-17 THE EXPERIENCEI had the good fortune of being invited to correct this book. A corrector does not always end up becoming emotionally involved in the text on which he is working, but when it happens it is always a positive and enriching experience. This happened to me. The work became a pleasure because this book is designed – and very well, by the way – by helping those who need it most, to convince teenagers who are soon to become adults and who are facing a future full of many paths in the road. What path to take? On its pages, you will not find exhaustive, tough or simple solutions. Instead there is something much more important: a way of achieving objectives through effort and optimism based on personal work. This work offers readers useful tools to mature personally and professionally. It is like the rod which is given to each and everyone of us to learn to fish.
Project: 7-17 THE EXPERIENCEThis book is a great tool, not only for those of us who work in the field of education.
Parents and educators can find answers to many of the questions which emerge in our daily interactions with teenagers. The idea of ‘Adding Value’ (one of the key concepts of this work) reflects a positive attitude and a constructive way of facing reality, a breath of fresh air at a time when what is superficial, easy and individualistic takes precedence in many fields of society.
