Career Development for Diverse Clients: Beyond the Basics examines
the unique challenges that individuals from a variety of
populations may face as they move their careers forward while
simultaneously challenging complex barriers to their employment and
career success. The textbook features 35 chapters, each written or
revised by someone with specialized knowledge or lived experience
in the area of diversity being examined. The opening section
explores the work of career development professionals, the required
reconceptualization of diversity and inclusion, and career
engagement across diversity. Additional sections address challenges
related to careers across the lifespan; gender; ethnicity and
culture; geographic location; physical/mental illness, injury, and
well-being; life transitions; and language and literacy within the
context of career development. Dedicated chapters examine encore
careers after retirement, supporting transgender folks in career
transitions, the training of Indigenous employment counselors,
disordered eating in the workplace, military-to-civilian career
transitions, the multilingual workplace, and much more. Written to
assist career development professionals in customizing their
approach to serving clients across cultures, conditions, and
contexts, Career Development for Diverse Clients is a valuable
resource for courses and programs in career development
counselling.
