|  | The Mulling Factor by Emory Mulling Approximately two-thirds of job dissatisfaction is caused by problems with the boss. Almost one-third is caused by problems with the work environment. Less than five percent of job dissatisfaction is caused by the work itself. Forty-five percent of all US workers said they would change their careers if they could. Even Smart People Make The Wrong Choices. This is a book for smart people looking to make the right career choices. Let`s face it, our careers define and shape us; they are the vessels that carry our hopes and dreams. Correctly chosen, they bring us success and well-being. Poorly chosen, they are sinking ships - dead weights that drag us down. Whether you`re fresh out of school looking for your first real job or re-entering the job market after graduate school or fifteen years of raising children, you want this first step to reward you with more than a paycheck. Or, if you`re now suffering the shock of unemployment or the slow torture of being unhappy on your job, the one thing you know for sure is that you want to make the right choice for the next phase of your career. Using the Mulling Factor (an assessment found within the book), readers can assess if they are misemployed, working for the right kind of boss, and existing in the right work environment. This is a practical, hands-on guide to getting things back in order and making the right career decisions. AUTHOR: Emory Mulling PUBLISHER: D C Press FORMAT: Paperback CATEGORY: Business
