Abstract | This book explores the career transition journey that a typical person undertakes when resolving difficulties with his or her worklife. It is written from the viewpoint of a counselor who has counseled more than 1,700 persons individually and more than 2,000 people in workshops, incorporating their experiences. The book is organized in three parts. Part 1 explores worklife events and career hazards, including the following: a day of work, the meaning of work, career journeys, expected and unexpected events, dual-career couples, career burnout, job content, career renewal, and the career transition experience. Part 2 examines the process of managing worklife transitions. The following topics are covered: personal responsibility, risk taking, data gathering, stimulus questions, self-help and help from others, the obstacles of time, and the inner self. Part 3 provides information to overcome career transition pitfalls, including ideas on managing emotions and self-development, research interviews, reality testing, career transition loneliness, and underestimating job-seeking complexity. A list of nine publications containing stimulus questionnaires is included. (KC) |
