Strengthening identity and easing choices

A resource manual for using revised Holland theory and tools to develop identity and adaptability in challenging times

While we make many job choices in a 21^st century career, they are usually connected by particular themes. Knowing our themes strengthens identity and assists our choices,  and our understanding of adaptable fit.

What is it: A resource describing the theory of John Holland in new revised  language and with simple tools which highlight themes and aspirations – insights that can be used to meet students or client’s needs.

WHY USE THIS: Identity theory is about strengthening the self, and self-knowledge is a compass for good choices.  When you understand your range of ‘best fit’ areas, the themes of your lives, you are better able to adapt your choices for the opportunities and challenges of today’s workplace ( ‘adaptable fit’). For young people developing identity these easy clear tools provide a simple framework for guidance in a complex world. For older clients they provide clarity and self-knowledge to strengthen their career confidence and inform choices.

This package has ideas for self-assessment and insights for clients of all ages:

• A Workshop PDF outlining the revised concepts and use of the resources,
• Self-assessment Start Cards and Job Clouds tools that can be printed and laminated for table-top use, (or used on screen), with suggestions for use.
• A completion sheet for Professional Development
