| Abstract
|
:
|
"The book introduces the "Employability Plus" model, an approach to career management that leaves behind traditional job- or organization-centric perspectives by focusing on the individual's "work," as a portfolio of skills that can be shaped to their interests and to their employers' needs and desires. Moreoever, Power explores how individuals can make the time to develop new skills and knowledge, even when they are employed full-time, in order to expand the array of options available." "Featuring real-life examples, interactive exercises, and an appendix of research tools and methods, The Mid-Career Success Guide offers fresh strategies and tactics for overcoming job stress and uncertainty, and proactively managing your career in midlife and beyond. In addition, it will serve as an essential resource for managers, human resource and career counseling professionals, and professors and students of organizational behavior and workplace trends."--Jacket.
