Why We Believe Career Planning is Essential
The Work Shop is built on the foundational idea that investing in your career through planning and developmental activities is the single most important strategy you can employ to experience higher pay, greater satisfaction and improved health and well-being.
Did you know: A college graduate can expect to earn over $2M in his/her lifetime. Intentional
strategies can be planned and implemented to protect and increase this major source of income.
Whether you're a student planning your major or first job, a professional planning your next promotion, or a manager seeking to develop your leadership skills, making a significant investment into career can provide a valuable financial return.
Did you know: If you earn $50,000 per year, just two extra 10% salary increases
(from a career move or a promotion) can result in an extra $150,000 in lifetime earnings?
Just as you would work with financial planners and advisors to craft a vision for your ideal financial future, it is imperative to craft a complimentary mission for your ideal work life. Since your career is probably the major source of your income over the course of your lifetime, it is the primary means to achieve to your ideal future. Wouldn't it just make sense to seek professional career advice to best plan for your future?
Just as long-term financial success doesn't happen by chance, success in your career doesn't
happen by chance.
