Most people become disillusioned with work at some point in their lives. Organizational politics get in the way of real achievement. Stress interferes with enjoying the rest of our lives. And sometimes we get the nagging feeling that we screwed up when choosing a career and now we're stuck with something we don't really want. While it's easy to blame the company, the boss, our parents or our teachers for our predicament, blame is a dead-end street. The only way to fix the problem is to fix ourselves first.

Working Choices helps you look at your career from an entirely new perspective. You'll take an honest look at organizational life, from the positives of shared experience and community to the negatives of status games and truth avoidance. You'll also move beyond the old question, "what do I want to be when I grow up?" through a series of exercises designed to help you choose work that enriches your entire life. Whether you're just starting out in your career or find yourself wondering, "Is That All There Is," Working Choices gives you the tools you need to make a difference in your work and improve the quality of your working life.
