Career Contentment--Don't Settle for Anything Less

Published by ASTD, this best-selling book reveals how to have and enjoy your best career despite circumstances that employers can't always make satisfying. The secret to career fulfillment is deceptively simpleā€”it's not about getting more, but learning how to appreciate what you already have as you continue to work towards what you desire. Experts in medicine, psychology and career say this new topic has been overlooked as your source of emotional resilience and self-motivation, and should birth a revolution in the workplace. This is a must read if you would like to learn how to retain workers and keep them productive despite reductions to budgets used to make them satisfied and engaged.

Natural v. Artificial Engagement

Workers in the new economy realize that employers are not in business to satisfy them, and that jobs are here today, but could be gone tomorrow. If people want to work it's understood that they must adapt to their tenuous circumstances or join the millions of unemployed. Thus the glue that is keeping many workers in their jobs is the failed economy and desire to survive, more so than genuine loyalty to any one employer.
