- Dick Bolles-more formally known as Richard Nelson Bolles-is the author of What Color Is Your Parachute? A Practical Guide For Job-Hunters and Career Changers, the most popular job-hunting book in the world. The book has sold more than 10,000,000 copies to date, and is dramatically updated, reshaped and rewritten, every year. "Parachute", as it's often called, has been translated into 20 languages and is used in 26 countries. Dick is credited with founding the modern career counseling field, and is often described as the field's #1 celebrity.
TIME chose What Color Is Your Parachute? as one of the 100 All-TIME best and most influential non-fiction books published since 1923.
The U.S. Dept. of Labor chose What Color Is Your Parachute as one of The Books That Have Shaped the World of Work, since 1758.
The Library of Congress' Center for the Book chose What Color Is Your Parachute as one of 25 books that have shaped people's lives (down through history).
Forbes Magazine chose him, along with Warren Buffett, and 18 others, as one of the 20 Wealth Wizards in the U.S. for 2013.
He was given the National Samaritan Award (previous honorees included Karl Menninger, Betty Ford, and Peter Drucker).
LinkedIn chose him as one of LinkedIn's 500 "Influencers" or "thought leaders." He writes regularly for that platform as well as a number of others.
He has four grown children : Stephen, Sharon, Gary and Mark (deceased). He and his wife Marci live in the San Francisco East Bay Area.
Watch at 1.5X, his voice instantly jumps to life, as of he's 20 years younger. Captivating!
Great suggestion. Thanks.
i hope people realise how big a legend this guy was and how many years he was publishing his book with annual editions. In this video he is 87 years old and to me his presentation is impressive given his age. I hope someone does come along to continue his wisdom in careers as his point regarding schools having a gap that addresses the need continues to be valid. RIP Dick!
His wisdom continues! The 2021 edition of What Color is Your Parachute? will be out in a month or so.
"Because what you are going to do FLOWS from who you are." Beautiful.
Wisdom. Know yourself to design your future.

THANK you, jeez how did this guy write a book!
This book has been my Life Bible, and I have recommended it to many people, some of whom have had their lives changed by it.
This was a lovely talk! I felt like I was listening to a kind and caring friend. It’s nice to slow down and listen to stories and details like this. Thank you for sharing!
Luck will be based on intersections and interactions; getting involved with people, which might give you access to opportunities. Intuition/alertness depends on what your bench mark is and what you notice. Observation. What do you like to work with most: People/information or things? Focus on your preference. Take inventory of yourself. Think out of the box. Design. Ask yourself: What do I LOVE to do? What am I good at? What am I enthusiastic about most? You could BE anything that resonates to who you are and what you love to do!
Now that's a name easy to remember

Very nice. I've been having to reflect on myself and start to think about what I'm actually gonna do when I'm older and this was entertaining and informational for me.
Great speech, right on point it has really helped me and its going to benefit me alot. Thankyou!
Fantastic! Upside down process, taking us away from that one or two exact careers, to the vast options that our skills and enjoyment can open up for us!
This is the best book for job hunting. It almost got me a job. Thank you Sir for the insights of the hiring process and the basics of communications and importance of thank you note. Thank you. Darshil.
Almost??
once again you’ve calmed my anxieties, and pointed me back in the right direction, thanks youtube dad.
Great talk!

Nice Name
his name is hilarius but i like him :D

There is no “self” or “I” to begin with in order to do a “self” inventory, unless your definition of “yourself” is the universe itself.
what, who said that lol
go ahead say I did hehe being connected to the universe doesn't mean there is no self
TheSophiaQuestor Thank you for asking. Ring the bell, school is in. What I said about “I”’and the universe is commonly explained these days by physicists, philosophers, school teachers, Zen Buddhists, etc. The very idea that you can be something separate from the universe did not exist until the period of the Enlightenment in western Europe in the 17th century. Western civilization took the French Philosophs’ ideas of “objectivity” of that time and ran with it while the wider world, including non-western civilizations to this day - kinda laugh at the notion.
Would you be interested in a facebook group oriented around the book? Reach out to me on facebook: facebook.com/robert.sterbal
12:40 DB really predicted the pandemic that would happen 5 years from this talk!
Jesus does this guy waffle, I reckon I could order the book and read it before making it through this.
25:22 in a nutshell
Guy on left: “Am I high or is this guy Jesus?”
Guy on right: “I think I’m gonna start incorporating some of this stuff into my life”
Thank me later

Who is this woman introducing the guest, reading from a piece of paper nervously?

Frog balls Arkansas
why would they show this to their employees xDD
Some points are interesting in general but I don't see anything directly applicable in every day life. The book's success seems to be rather due to fame than usefulness :-/
Selling books shows the hope of people to find the solution to their problem in the book. The question is to how many it was really useful. Most lucrative is to sell dreams and hope. This is how the Bible hit the greatest numbers following by the Quran.
Can you get to the point already?
Fast forward to where he gets to the point...what you determine the point to be is up to you. Perhaps his life experience is part of the point, if you want to see it that way.
Too long introduction, stories, anecdotes, and too little content. Waste of my time, and probably also yours
wabechmann cheer up buttercup
What a terrible talk! How on earth did this guy write a coherent book!
