English Summary/英文概要: A full-colour, highly graphic, fun-to-use handbook primarily for 20- and 30-somethings who are seeking a fulfilling worklife that will make them happy and keep them engaged. The advice is a distillation of the pathways and discoveries from the first 10 years of Roadtrip Nation’s interviews with admired professionals across industries and the arts; 10 seasons of the PBS show by the same name; the career development content that Roadtrip Nation produces for 6,500 colleges across North America; and Roadtrip’s work with the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, the UN Social Innovation Summit, and the Clinton Global Initiative. The material is presented in three sections of inspirational and practical bite-sized chapters with guided journal-like prompts throughout to make the reading interactive and the learning personally relevant. Readers will end up with a self-mapped path for creating a worklife they love. An appendix is filled with stand-alone exercises for those who need more help figuring things out. Hastags throughout encourage users to post their self-discoveries to share (all hosted by RTN) to broaden/deepen the reader experience. A new kind of engagement book, making the analogue interactive while also extending a digital experience.

Roadtrip cofounders Nate Gebhard, Brian McAllister, and Mike Marriner are college pals who started Roadtrip Nation when they set out on a cross-country trip in a beat-up green RV with the idea of approaching established professionals they admired and interviewing them about how they got where they were in their worklives. Ten-plus years later, Roadtrip Nation has 55 employees and thousands of ambassadors. It is a production company, an educational content development company, a workways think tank, and a partner to major foundations and companies invested in shaping the world’s workforce. Since it launched in 2001, Roadtrip Nation has been showcased in: Clinton Global Initiative, NBC Education Nation, TED-X, Google Talks, SXSW, United Nations Social Innovation Summit, and the Harvard Social Enterprise Forum.

The PBS show is seen on 300 stations in 80m homes and will celebrate its 11th season in Fall 2014.
