{"product_id":"9781577317807","title":"The Authentic Career: Following the Path of Self-Discovery to Professional Fulfillment","description":"Many people experience some degree of job dissatisfaction. But figuring out whether they should change themselves — or change jobs — isn't easy. Drawing on her business background, training as a social worker, and years as an executive coach, Maggie Craddock outlines a therapeutic process that carefully separates what the reader wants and needs from the often-frustrating demands of family and work.    The author believes that identifying authentic career goals and strategies requires a careful examination of one's inner life. She clearly outlines the four-stage process — beginning with the Awareness Stage and ending with the Integration Stage — and includes exercises, examples, and inspirational quotes. Craddock gently guides the reader through the process, illustrating each stage with real-life examples, including stories from Fortune 500 CEOs and professional women returning to the workforce after having children. Ultimately a very hopeful book, The Authentic Career is a welcome companion on anyone’s career path.","brand":"New World Library","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47150168244464,"sku":"9781577317807","price":10.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781577317807_p0.jpg?v=1763798633","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781577317807","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
