Description
Including six new chapters on current advances in theory development and applications, this third edition explores a broad range of career development topics. Discussion includes: the reasons people choose their careers; how changes in interests, skills and motives occur throughout the life cycle; and how people do or do not change and adapt to their careers. The book then illustrates how to harness this knowledge to tailor career counselling and planning services to the distinct needs of clients from diverse backgrounds, at different stages of life and at various occupational levels.
