Go!: Reboot Your Career in 90 Days is an empowering and highly practical guide for professionals seeking meaningful and intentional career transformation. Lisa Thee recognizes that today's workforce is navigating unprecedented challenges, from rapidly changing workplace expectations and technological disruption to burnout, toxic organizational cultures, and shifting definitions of professional success. Rather than encouraging readers to simply persevere in environments that diminish their potential, she offers something far more valuable: a thoughtful framework for reclaiming ownership of one's career and building a professional life aligned with both personal values and long-term fulfillment.
What immediately distinguishes this book is its understanding that career success is no longer measured solely by titles, promotions, or financial achievement. Increasingly, professionals are seeking work environments that support growth, well-being, purpose, and authenticity. Thee acknowledges that remaining in the wrong role or workplace can carry significant personal and professional costs. Her message is both validating and empowering, career transitions are not failures to be feared but opportunities to intentionally pursue work that better reflects who we are and what we value.
At the heart of the book is a practical ninety-day career reboot framework designed to help readers move thoughtfully from dissatisfaction to meaningful action. Rather than advocating impulsive decisions or unrealistic overnight transformations, Thee encourages readers to pause, reflect, and strategically plan their next professional chapter. The emphasis on listening to one's instincts while balancing practical considerations makes the guidance both inspirational and actionable. Career reinvention becomes less about abandoning the past and more about intentionally building upon one's experiences, strengths, and aspirations.
One of the book's greatest strengths is its holistic approach to career development. Thee recognizes that professional fulfillment cannot be separated from broader questions surrounding health, workplace culture, and personal well-being. Discussions surrounding toxic environments, burnout, and inclusion are particularly timely as organizations continue to adapt to evolving workforce expectations. Readers are reminded that sustainable success requires more than resilience alone, it also requires environments that respect individual contributions and create opportunities for meaningful growth.
Another compelling aspect of the book is its broad relevance across career stages and industries. Whether readers are entering the workforce, pursuing leadership positions, considering significant career changes, or recovering from professional setbacks, the principles remain remarkably applicable. The personal stories and examples of career transformation provide both encouragement and practical insight, demonstrating that successful professional reinvention can take many different forms. The book speaks equally well to rising professionals seeking greater alignment and experienced leaders reassessing what success means during different stages of their careers.
What makes Go! particularly valuable is that it addresses both sides of today's workplace conversation. While the book equips individuals with practical strategies for navigating career transitions, it also challenges organizational leaders to create cultures capable of attracting, supporting, and retaining exceptional talent. Thee highlights the importance of psychological safety, inclusion, and purposeful leadership in ways that make the book relevant not only for employees but also for executives, managers, and organizational decision-makers seeking to build stronger workplace cultures.
Perhaps the book's most powerful message is that professional fulfillment is neither accidental nor reserved for a fortunate few. Meaningful careers are built through intentional choices, honest self-reflection, and the courage to pursue environments where individuals can contribute their best work while remaining true to themselves. By encouraging readers to trust their instincts without sacrificing thoughtful planning, Thee offers a refreshing alternative to both complacency and impulsivity.
Go!: Reboot Your Career in 90 Days is an insightful and timely contribution to the career development and leadership genres. Lisa Thee successfully combines practical guidance, thoughtful reflection, and empowering strategies to help readers confidently navigate professional change. Whether someone is seeking greater purpose, escaping an unhealthy workplace, pursuing leadership opportunities, or simply reassessing what success means, this book provides a valuable roadmap for creating a career that is not only successful but authentically one's own.

Noted digital director, business advisor, and CEO with enlivening ideas for helping others, Lisa Thee has constructed a manual for hardworking, like-minded females who need support and direction as they struggle with career challenges and the wish to advance and achieve.
Thee taught herself a valuable lesson from experience at her first summer job as an overseer on an auto assembly line: “It doesn’t cost a penny to be kind.” This understanding steered her later toward both private volunteer work and the corporate creation of efforts to assure the safety and well-being of children. She has had her share of ups and downs, with a low point being the pandemic years when, while continuing to pursue her career in the cellular marketplace, she contracted Covid, but kept moving forward, trying to organize her workdays to fulfill all her obligations. The Covid turned to “long Covid” and the subsequent discovery of other, structural ailments. Still, she persisted, and in 2020, she was selected to give a keynote address for a TEDx conference, centered on her endeavors in the field of anti-human-trafficking. Although she was nervous and unsure of her ability to talk without notes as was required, she triumphed. It is this grit, and the wish to “be kind” at every level, that infuses her narrative. To fulfill the book’s purpose, Thee gathered a “committee” of 30 successful women whose experience is relevant and whose quotations underscore her pertinent points.
Thee’s widespread achievements in the cyber world have included the foundation of the data outreach organization, National Center for Missing and Exploited Children, to efficiently generate swift, national response to child abuse reports. Among other distinguishing credits, she was named to the 2022 Top 100 Brilliant Women in AI Ethics global list. Her 90-day “Reboot Process,” targeted for working women like herself, is refreshingly practical, beginning with the instruction to keep an “energy log” to note how much and which types of efforts one expends at different times, in varying settings. The proposition to “take daily walks without looking at your phone” could and should be part of everyone’s routine. Emphasis on such common issues as burnout, mentoring and workplace diversity are addressed, with useful charts and statistics offered. Thee’s array of advice, based on her own experience, is carefully and caringly devised to assist other women to maintain a flow of upward-directed, self-confident energies.
Quill says: Helping women to advance in their careers while encouraging and maintaining stability and perspective in all life settings is the call to action set forth by award-winning, conscientious businesswoman Lisa Thee in her new book Go!: Reboot Your Career in 90 Days.

Unexpected depth
My expectations included more of a how-to guide, but what I found instead was a passionate author who shared from her heart on a series of business, Human Resources, leadership, and personal journey topics. Lisa has used her expertise to do good across the nation and made a difference across the globe in an effort to thwart human trafficking. This is an amazing memoir wrapped up in storytelling that is captivating.

Lisa Thee has built her career at the intersection of technology, leadership, and human impact — and that rare combination shows on every page of Go!

This is the book the modern professional has been waiting for."

"What separates Go! from every other career book on the shelf is that it does not leave you inspired and stranded. Lisa Thee gives you a real 90-day framework built on her own hard-won experience, and the result is something rare — a book you can actually act on the day you finish it. Clear, honest, and built for the world we are actually living in."
