Fulfilment at work

The Career Workbook is a guided journal designed to help you find a more fulfilling career. Through a series of essays, questions and written exercises, you’ll build up a personalised portrait of your talents and ambitions and zero in on the career that will satisfy both.

The book will help you…

• Establish a firm, clear and realistic sense of your talents, passions, ambitions and weaknesses.

• Understand how your upbringing and past has influenced your career decisions.

• Identify and overcome psychological obstacles standing in the way of your goals.

• Decide exactly how and when to make a career change.

The book applies a uniquely philosophical perspective to the world of work. It dares us to ask truly big questions: about why humans need work; the kinds of work that truly motivate us; and how the right job can give our lives purpose and meaning.

Charlotte Q. ★★★★★

The essay sections caught me off guard in the best way, they made me actually stop and think instead of just filling in blanks. I've been doing one exercise each Sunday morning and already have a clearer picture of what I want from my next role.

Harper ★★★★★

Three weeks in and I've filled nearly half the pages, mostly the questions about what actually drains me at work versus what energizes me. The essays before each exercise are short enough to read on a lunch break but they give the prompts some real direction.

Elizabeth ★★★★★

I didn't expect a workbook to make me rethink my whole career, but the essay prompts hit harder than I thought. The written exercises walk you through it step by step, so it never feels overwhelming. I finished it in about two weeks and actually have a clearer direction now.
