Arbeitsplatzen) im Betrieb benotigen. Die Vorbereitung des Forschungsvorhab ns lief 1959 an. Die Erhebungen begannen gegen Ende des gleichen Jahres und reichten his Mitte 1960.

Systemic oppression continues to disenfranchise students at the intersections of race, ethnicity, gender identity, sexual orientation, immigrant status, religion, ableism, and economic status. Because of this, school counselors are called to function as advocates and change agents, but often find themselves underprepared to address these oppressive systems in schools. It is vital that school counselors are provided resources that enable them to increase their preparedness and allow them to address oppressive practices within schools as well as work with diverse populations using culturally affirming and antiracist practices. Developing, Delivering, and Sustaining School Counseling Practices Through a Culturally Affirming Lens informs culturally affirming and antiracist professional practice and advocacy work by school counselors. It serves as a learning tool that better prepares school counselors to address the needs of marginalized students and work as effective change agents to disrupt systemic oppression in school settings. Covering topics such as professional identity, racial trauma, and social justice, this book serves as a dynamic resource for school counselor educators, school counselors-in-training, school counselors, directors, supervisors, district leaders and administration, researchers, and academicians as they implement antiracist, social justice, and culturally affirming practices in school settings and academia.

Optimizing Career Engagement: A Guide for Enhancing Careers and Other Life Roles introduces readers to career engagement, a model authors Deirdre A. Pickerell and Roberta A. Borgen developed and which conceptualizes career engagement as the alignment of challenging, stimulating work with a matching level of capacity. The book outlines the history and development of the career engagement model, along with the authors' current thinking on how it fits within the broader conversation around work and life engagement. The first chapter examines the changing world of work, especially in light of the COVID-19 pandemic. Additional chapters focus on various elements of the career engagement model. Readers learn about the factors that contribute to career engagement-motivating work, meaningful opportunities, resources, relationships, workload, well-being, and fit-and how the model operates in specific contexts. Remaining chapters focus on career engagement for students, families, communities, and retirees, providing readers with strategies for staying engaged across all life roles. Each chapter features a case vignette to demonstrate how the chapter's focused content applies in the real world, as well as activities and reflection opportunities to deepen and personalize learning. Designed to stimulate and support important conversations about work and life, Optimizing Career Engagement is an exemplary resource for courses and programs in human resources management, organizational behavior, and career development.
