Adulting is tough.
You’ve just graduated, and you’re suddenly thrust into the real world with nothing more than a flimsy certificate, and you’re suddenly expected to know:- What work you like or what you’re even good at;
- How to do your work well;
- How to handle that toxic boss, or horrible colleague;
- How to ask for a pay rise and a promotion.
That’s only the start.
Soon you will need to know how to read the tea leaves, and leave your job.
It’s not fair. When you were in kindergarten, you had mummy going with you.
In school, you had fun orientations. Then in university, you had camps.
But suddenly in the adult world, you’re expected to know many things.Breathe.
Vault! will help. It won’t have all the answers, but it will have ideas, and actions you can take to immediately apply and improve things.Relax.
Adulting isn’t easy, but it will be worth the journey. -
“There may be many different views on how the Gen Zs should tackle the future, but what we can all agree on is the hyper-complexity and uncertainty their future holds, and so kudos to John for trying to pen his thoughts to help the next generation, especially in Singapore!”
- David Chua CEO, National Youth Council
“There are many people who have struggled in their transition from school to work. But there is only ONE John who actually went through it, struggled through it, and came back to share his advice with you. John’s Vault! is a rare find and count yourself lucky for grabbing this book. The distance that John went through to get all his stories and advice into a book just for you is truly extraordinary. I would highly recommend it to any schoolgoer regardless of where they are. If you want to succeed in this transition into the workforce and adulthood, Vault! is the book you would want to read.”
