Vocational Choice and Guidance

People are happier and more productive in jobs for which their abilities, interests and personalities are suited. Put simply, work satisfaction - and therefore life satisfaction - depends on a person finding the right type of job. This is the principal objective in a career choice or guidance situation.

• Young people. There are a number of test batteries developed specifically for career guidance for school-age individuals. These identify interests and aptitudes which point to particular career possibilities or provide a focus for planning further education.
  
  
• Adults. The career counselling process is unique to the individual and the particular situation (career choice, career change, organisational change, redeployment, to name but a few). Through one-to-one dialogue, the application of a wide range of psychometric tools and feedback discussions, an experienced career counsellor examines the individual's interests, personal goals and long-term objectives. Together, the counsellor and the individual formulate a focussed career plan.
  
  
• Organisations. Knowing the strengths, weaknesses, motivations and behavioural styles of your workforce empowers the organisation by enabling informed decisions on, for example, promotion prospects or coaching needs; or by identifying potential sources of stress. Employees are encouraged to fulfil their potential, thereby maximising the probability of you retaining your best people.
