About Party Crash Your Career & Life: Be Bold, Risk Safely, and Succeed Without an Invitation

At one point in our lives or another, we have all had the experience of wanting to try our hand at something we have no business trying. Whether it’s striking out on a new career path or asking someone out who’s out of our league, many of us know what it’s like to find our way barred before we’ve even set out. But even without the requisite qualities, skills, or street cred, we can still make our dreams come true. How? By simply refusing to wait for an invitation! In this original work of nonfiction, career keynote speaker Allan James Moore argues compellingly for crashing life’s parties you feel you should be in but have not been invited to and probably never will. Part memoir and part self-help, Party Crash Your Career & Life shows how making your own opportunities and carving your own path—regardless of your experience, reputation, or credentials—leads to both personal and professional success. Drawing both on his own personal experience—from trying out for a professional soccer team to a stint as a Mandarin interpreter and translator, to his eventual success as a keynote speaker delivering speeches across the globe—as well as a wealth of examples drawn from the worlds of sports and entertainment—from Steve Nash to Susan Boyle—Moore demonstrates the power of party crashing your way into the places, relationships, and positions of your dreams.
