"Re-booting Work,” an ode to shaking up the traditional workplace.
Kara Miller and Kine Chapin, WGBH News
Millennials face a brutal workforce. Baby Boomers can only dream about retirement. Most companies don't last as long. The job market has never been so desultory. Right? Wrong, argues tech veteran Maynard Webb.

In the book, he advocates taking control of your destiny, though that doesn’t necessarily mean starting your own business. It means advancing your skills to stay atop the massive rate of change under way.

Maynard Webb knows a thing or two about navigation through a career path. One of the tech industry's most respected veterans. Webb just added another role to his resume — author — to help other people better forge their own successful work lives.

The man brought in to fix the auction site's network nearly 14 years ago has become one of the most respected voices in Silicon Valley. He has just written a book about taking control of your future. Webb is considered one of the elder statesmen of Silicon Valley.

Maynard Webb has always been the go-to guy when Silicon Valley companies have tough problems. Webb brings strategic and operational savvy to every issue and venture.
Dan Schawbel, Forbes
I agree hole-hardheartedly with Webb’s theory about work. I’ve called it being an entrepreneur for life. In “Rebooting Work”, co-authored with Carlye Adler, Webb takes all of his insight about careers (he has a passion for mentoring) and distills it into a sort of self-actualization guide.
Victoria Barret, Forbes
Maynard Webb knows something about transformation as noted above. Also important to know that he's not a work "hippy" (I might be). He started with IBM and speaks fondly of the mentoring he received. If he thinks work is shifting, it is a good idea to pay attention.
