John Burns FCMA is a seasoned career coach, corporate veteran, and now a passionate author with a message too important to ignore: no job is truly secure. With over 25 years of experience in the corporate world, John navigated the highs of leadership, the grind of office politics, and eventually, the hard truth of career displacement. That unexpected turn didn't end the journey - it transformed it. Today, he helps professionals future-proof their careers, prepare for uncertainty, and regain control of their professional lives. As the founder of CareerProof Coaching(TM)️, John has mentored hundreds of young professionals and mid-career leaders, offering them tools to thrive in an ever-changing job market. Through keynotes, workshops, podcasts and one-on-one sessions, he continues to empower individuals to think beyond job titles and build careers anchored on adaptability, skills, and self-worth. Prepare to Get Fired! is not just a book, it's a wake-up call. It's part memoir, part manual, and fully grounded in lived experience. Whether you're just starting your career or leading a team, this book will change how you view job security, and inspire you to take your future into your own hands. When John isn't writing or coaching, you'll find him reading, going on long walks, keeping fit in local gyms or watching rugby games with friends and family.
