Preface
The contents of this book is for you if one or more of the following criteria can be answered with “yes”:
Do you love your work?
Are you satisfied and happy in your job?
Do you want to change your career?
Are you looking for your dream job?
Are you looking for a job that makes sense to you?
Are you dissatisfied or unhappy with your professional situation or with your boss?
Are you working in a job or with an employer that does not agree with your expectations or which does not allow for your personal development?
Do you more often than not struggle motivating yourself because of the underlying feeling that this job is just not for you?
Are you simply looking for the "right" profession for yourself, for example after completing your studies or as part of a professional reorientation programme?
Then this book is for you!
What can you expect from this book?
You will learn a successful and very pragmatic method with which hundreds of professionals have already changed their professional situation for the better. Step by step you will find out how to find the perfect job for yourself.
This book provides guidelines for discovering your perfect job and will help you find answers to these questions:
Why am I not progressing in my job or career?
Am I even on the right track?
What am I doing in this job / in this company?
What do I want to achieve professionally?
What are my strengths, my competences and my talents?
How can I make use of my talents more successfully elsewhere?
What is my goal in life?
What is my professional vocation?
What contribution do I want to make to society?
What makes me unique?
How can my uniqueness be an asset towards other people or a company?
There is probably also another, quite crucial, question in connection with your job situation:
Do I want to keep on doing
this job for the next 10 or 15 years?
Everyone can build a great career and be successful and happy in their profession. This statement becomes even more evident when considering that you can define what success means to you. It does not matter which position you are in, where and for whom you might be working; career and success in this context does not necessarily refer to a specialist or management career in a company in the classical sense.
Therefore, success is defined through developing the ability of finding solutions to existing problems and solving them. In other words, it is about overcoming challenges and thus making a great contribution. Although often considered hard to achieve, you can actually make unique contributions through your personality and carry out tasks or activities that best suit your abilities and talents.
If you want to know your true strengths and how to best employ them for a new profession, this book provides you with very specific instructions.
I hope you enjoy reading and implementing the findings of this book. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact me.
Yours Klaus Haertel
“Each man has his own vocation. The talent is the call. There is one direction in which all space is open to him. He has faculties silently inviting him thither to endless exertion. He is like a ship in a river; he runs against obstructions on every side but one; on that side all obstruction is taken away, and he sweeps serenely over a deepening channel into an infinite sea.”
(Ralph Waldo Emerson)
