The original book was only the beginning.
In2Win! is Curt Skene’s practical, rapid-fire career guide, now rebuilt as a living online resource that can grow as the world of work changes.
This In2Win! SmartBook resource is best enjoyed on a desktop or laptop computer.
Why In2WinBook exists
Career transition is demanding, emotional and often unnecessarily complicated. Curt wrote In2Win! to give experienced professionals short, direct ideas they could understand quickly and put to work immediately.
Each page focuses on one question, one important lesson and one memorable Curt’s Keeper. Readers can move through the book in order or go directly to the issue that matters most today.
Why it became a SmartBook
The printed book was published in 2012, but career-search practices, technology and employer expectations continue to evolve. The SmartBook preserves the original text and cartoons while creating room for current guidance.
Every page can now include audio, Curt’s explanation of why he wrote it, an In2Win! Afterthought covering what has changed since print, and a focused member discussion.
Curt’s original guidance and Colin McClean’s cartoons remain together.
The memorable takeaway from each page, followed by a plain-language explanation.
Curt’s personal purpose and perspective behind the lesson.
New observations and guidance reflecting what has changed since 2012.
Audio narration will make the guidance easier to revisit and absorb.
Members can connect each lesson to real career-search questions and experiences.

Seven selected pages are marked Free and can be read by anyone without registering or signing in.
