Choosing a career path, navigating it successfully and continuing to move in the right direction can get complicated when your life’s work isn’t fulfilling. But it’s never too late to course-correct.
While the risks associated with making a job switch might sound great, the cost of staying in a job that doesn’t align with your interests and talents is far greater, advises career development coach Helen Horyza in her new release, Elevate Your Career: Live a Life You’re Truly Proud Of.
“A major career transformation often involves pitfalls or disappointments which threaten to derail us,” Horyza writes. “The metaphysical notion that things will go smoothly if you’re on the right path is simplistic. Life is more complicated than that, but there is a clear path forward.”
Elevate Your Career uses true stories about people from all walks of life and education levels who have reassessed their passions, pivoted their skillsets and created careers that are the perfect fit. How? Horyza explains it all and offers valuable tools that readers can use right away to reassess their own career paths.
First, the Elevate Career Cycle method, which is explained in the book, can help readers uncover their passion by pinpointing their interests and unique talents. Also included with the book is a coupon code for the Elevations Career Assessment, which synthesizes values, skills, interests and personality in the context of contemporary careers. Individuals who complete the assessment receive a focused report complete with valuable decision-making tools. The result is a comprehensive model for smart and healthy career development.
No matter where you are in your evolving career journey—college student, executive or someone looking to course-correct—this book will provide you with the tools and the momentum you need to elevate your career.
