---- Can you play the private sector game?? ----
'It’s a Game, not a Formula: How to Succeed as a Scientist in the Private Sector' is a new career book by David Giltner that teaches scientists career design, industry career planning, and how to win the private sector game.

Scientists tend to look for the ‘right way’ to do things. We are used to chasing after formulas and theories that describe the behavior of the universe, and this expectation that there is a ‘right answer’ tends to permeate much of what we do.

But the world outside the controlled environment of the science lab doesn’t work that way. The most successful scientists who enter the private sector approach their work as if it were a game, with rules that need to be followed but with no clear ‘right way’ to do things. They take risks, make decisions quickly, and don't overthink things.

This book features valuable insights from experienced and successful industry PhD scientists who share their valuable stories to help you succeed in the private sector and build that rewarding career you are seeking.

'It's a Game, not a Formula' covers the following topics:
- Why do PhD scientists struggle to get hired in industry?
- What are the stereotypes of PhDs in industry?
- Working habits that successful scientists learn quickly
- Why is trying to find the 'right way' to build our career a bad idea?
- What are the 'R&D MIndsets' and why are they so important?
- Can a scientist be a good entrepreneur?
