Description
International surveys show consistently that more than one in two job-holders are in the wrong job – but choose to do nothing about it. Longer hours and increased levels of stress play an increasing part of a professional career than 10 years ago. But there is a downside; a recent UK survey suggests that about one in six employees have seriously considered sabotaging the company they work for. So a lot of discontent in the workplace – but how did it happen and what can be done? Most people spend more time planning their annual holiday than planning their career. When jobs are plentiful people drift to the most accessible ones; in a recession they take what they can get. What’s missing in either case is a process to match your job with your skills, your expertise, your way of working so that you can have a career and not just a job.
To do this you have to be your own career detective – ferreting out hard-to-get information, making contacts and ultimately making sense of a lot of data.
