How Americans can find the work they're wired to do

Many Americans can easily identify a lack of fulfillment in their work lives, but executing a career change can be challenging. Host of The Ken Coleman Show & two-time national bestselling author Ken Coleman joins Wealth! to break down how Americans can find the job they're meant for. Coleman outlines the questions people must ask themselves when switching to new career paths: "What do I need to learn? What do I need to do? What kind of experience do I need? A lot of people call the Ken Coleman show saying, hey, I applied for this, but they're saying I don't have enough experience. Well, its because you're applying for something a little too high up the ladder, so where do we get in? There's entry level for every position and every career path. So those are the first two questions. Now, once we figure out what is it that I need to learn and do, that's education and experience, how much are both of those ventures going to cost me. What's the hard cost of my time and money to get qualified? And then that allows me to figure out what my expectations should be."
