Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The Color Q system does not change people, but it does change how they view themselves. You will not be told to be more organized, assert yourself, or emulate some celebrity CEO. Instead, you will be given the freedom to operate from your deepest, most natural talents. #2 The Color Q personality profiling system reveals your primary personality Color, a secondary influence, and an Introvert or Extrovert tendency. You should fill out Section I, choosing what you, not your boss, parents, or friends, prefer. #3 The Blues are the theoretical, competitive, and always driven to acquire more knowledge and competence. They are highly precise in thought and language, and they are future oriented. They trust only logic, not the rules or procedures of the past. #4 The Extrovert/Introvert dimension is a biologically based trait that has nothing to do with liking people or being socially adept. It is about getting your energy from being with people and doing group activities, while getting your energy from inner resources alone.

Courting Your Career uses dating as a metaphor to demystify the process of finding a great job. It's a humorous, informative, and helpful book for job seekers, inspired by the author's work with more than a thousand undergraduate and graduate students at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and Westminster College. He learned that many college students lack critical job search skills and generally do not know how to effectively use traditional career-search resources, from databases to networking. He also found they didn't relate to the majority of career titles already on the market. But when he used dating as a metaphor for the job search, students better understood the process and eventually met with much more success in their searches. Each chapter of Courting Your Career contains detailed anecdotes and advice appropriate for every stage of a typical job search, from what initially attracts us to a potential employer, to strategies for landing that dream job. Interspersed are the actual words of current and former job seekers who have come to view the search for the right job as similar to looking for the perfect mate.

The authoritative resource for finding new work and new purpose after fifty. Whether they’re old enough to have earned their AARP card or not, a new generation of American workers is no longer counting the days until retirement. Instead, they’re seeking greater fulfillment in their personal lives by tackling new—and often much more socially significant—work. Switching careers is a challenge at any age, yet boomers may have more to overcome than their younger counterparts: They must beef up their education or seek out retraining; cope with seismic lifestyle shifts such as less income and a new circle of friends; and reconcile themselves to the fact that even the most rewarding position is no panacea for life’s problems. After decades writing about career issues for publications as diverse as the Chicago Tribune, Family Circle, Workplace Management, and Wired, Sam Greengard brings a wealth of knowledge to this timely topic. He shows how to sort out your feelings about your existing career; successfully transition to a new one; and work toward a greater sense of balance in your daily life. Profiles of those who’ve attained their own goals are included, along with tips, quizzes, worksheets, how-to sidebars, and other practical resources.
