We came across an interesting article written by Stephen Rosen on the Celia Paul Associates website. In the article, Stephen Rosen provides the following quick self assessment:
He writes:
“To test your career health and preparedness for change, ask yourself how often you do or agree with each of the following… “never”, “sometimes” or “always”?
1. I intuitively develop abiding relationships with my friends and colleagues.
2. Professional colleagues, mentors, advisors and role models were important in my life.
3. Life is full of random events I attempt to convert to adventures.
4. In my professional and social life, I present my truest and best self.
5. I know what I can change, what I can’t and the difference between them.
6. I redirect my energies, instincts and desires into useful pursuits.
7. Humility is a great virtue.
8. The harder the work, the luckier I get.
9. I work hard and play hard.
10. Decisions I made at important turning points in my career were beneficial to my career.
11. I am energetic and optimistic about my career and my life.
12. I gain energy, pleasure and renewal from my work or career.
13. Excellent job opportunities and offers well-suited to me have come my way as if by chance.
Your career health is good if you were able to answer always to three quarters of the questions.”
