Books Amanda Peters Loves
Amanda tells us that she read "constantly (multiple books a week- mysteries, other fiction, nonfiction esp. history and career-related) and recommending particular books is tough." She read I Could Do Anything before she made her own career change, and recommends Transitions and Life on Purpose to her experienced students. "For fun," she says, "check out Chicken Soup, Boots."

Amanda Peters has always been interested in learning about other people and making a positive impact on the world. After studying anthropology in college, her career took some twists and turns before she discovered the world of career counseling. Today, Amanda helps students at the Kennedy School of Government at Harvard "find connections between the impact that they want to make, the skills and experiences that they bring from elsewhere from before they came here, and the skills and experiences they want to get or they are getting here at the school."
