Career and work contribute significantly to personal and life satisfaction-and, when they are problematic, to personal unhappiness and stress. In this comprehensive career assessment book, Rodney L. Lowman addresses the three major areas that matter the most for understanding and helping people with their career choices: occupational interests, abilities (broadly defined), and personality characteristics. Chapters examine how these factors relate to career satisfaction, how to assess them using psychometric measures, and how to integrate the results of these assessments with the clients' specific needs and goals. Detailed case examples are included, as well as a nuanced discussion of ethics and technology. Lowman's career assessment model is the only one to integrate vocational interests, abilities, and personality characteristics-three domains that have proven their value in career assessment across a broad range of career concerns. By applying this model, career assessors can offer practical career guidance that makes a big difference in peoples' lives.
Consulting psychology is rapidly growing yet sometimes underappreciated discipline whose goal is to apply psychological science to consultation at three levels: individual, group, and organizational. This foundational volume of the Fundamentals of Consulting Psychology series translates theory and research into a concise, easy-to-read introduction to the field. Case examples help to illustrate the rewarding and important work of consulting psychologists, which includes coaching individuals, assessing and improving work group dynamics, and enhancing organizational systems and processes.
The concept of multiculturalism has been widely integrated into popular culture over the last half century. Yet the standard multicultural constructs - such as race, gender, sexual orientation, and religion - while still essential, are no longer adequate in today's increasingly globalised world. This book broadens the concept of multiculturalism to encompass internationalism. In other words, it internationalises multiculturalism. It argues that professionals in all fields can enhance both their multicultural and international competence to perform more effectively. The contributors review the relevant research and, drawing also from personal experience, apply these concepts to real-world professional practice in business, mental health, and education - three areas that are especially well positioned to impact the health and well-being of clients, employees, and customers. This book will appeal to scholars of multiculturalism as well as practicing professionals in a range of fields, especially business, mental health, and education.
