What Dr. Harkness says about knowing your options
"More than every before, if your career is not under your control, you are headed for an immediate crisis," says Dr. Harkness, who's new model is called the "Yo-Yo " model — "You're On Your Own!"
Having experienced and survived her own career and future shock and chaos in the early 1970s, she designed her programs to teach adults —at every age, career and educational level— how to work and thrive in the current age of constant change and complexity.
Her four-step model for career change:
- Self-Assessment - who am I? What can I do?
- Career Exploration - Where can I do it? What's out there?
- Future Direction - How do I see myself? What do I really want?
- Strategic Action Plan - How do I get there? What are my options?
