    About this ebook

    Work is part of God's plan for people. For a career to be fulfilling, that work should fit into the individual's values, talents and gifts. In Your Career in Changing Times, Lee Ellis and Larry Burkett explore tying a career into the large picture of pursuing God's will through efficient use of one's gifts. You'll discover the four skills that every employee will need in tomorrow's job market, the 'how-to's of preparing for work through education and training, and even twelve steps you can take to help your children select the right career. Sixty to eighty percent of those in the work force are dissatisfied with their jobs. The workplace is changing. With economic prospects dim, companies are downsizing to make themselves more competitive, and college graduates are facing a dismal hiring environment. Automation and technology will reduce employment needs even more, and there will be strong competition for jobs.

    Whether you're a young person preparing to attend college, an executive considering a job change, or you're looking forward to retirement, Your Career in Changing Times is the tool you'll need to make these life-changing decisions. In a transforming workplace you can't afford to be plagued with doubt about the skills you have to offer, and you can't afford to be uninformed about career planning.
