The Career Itch

The 21st century workplace offers many possibilities. You can work for someone, run your own business, go freelance or even a combination. All these choices can be overwhelming however, with many people feeling burnt out, stuck in a rut, confused about where they are going or desperate for work life balance. Grace Owen experienced this inner restlessness and called it The Career Itch. It took her on a journey of discovery that enabled her to take control of what she did next and ultimately led to her becoming a career coach. The book takes you through four key steps: I for Identity; T for Thinking, C for Change and H for Habit. It includes inspiring case studies and exercises designed to help you discover more about yourself and what you want and support you in taking action. Owen emphasises that you don't need to find the answer to your entire career right now; you only need to discover the next step. You are likely to experience The Career Itch several times in your working life and you can use this book to help you decide what to do next on every occasion.
