Quote of the month

“Let us be about setting high standards for life, love, creativity, and wisdom. If our expectations in these areas are low, we are not likely to experience wellness. Setting high standards makes every day and every decade worth looking forward to.”

Greg Anderson, founder of the American Wellness Project.

A word from the MD, Peter Tobin

Last month, Worklife asked readers to participate in our annual Career Survey. Thank you to each and every one of you who took the time to provide us with some feedback. We look forward to bringing you the results and feedback over the next few months.

Also in the what’s new section, Worklife will take a look at emPOWER Magazine, an online subscription aimed at empowering aspiring women in their careers, life, health and spirituality. Recently one of Worklife’s long-time colleagues and friends began contributing to the career section of emPOWER, so please scroll down to read more.

As always, I hope you enjoy this issue of the Worklife News Alert for 2010. So we can keep improving and changing for 2010, don’t forget to tell us what you think - why not email us with your comments and suggestions (click here to contact us now).

First of all, a huge “THANK YOU” to all those people who answered our call last month and completed the online Career Survey 2010. In this survey, we asked participants about their careers and their lives currently, how the differing elements in their life have been affected by the Global Financial Crisis and how these elements have changed since we conducted the initial survey 12 months ago.

Over the next few editions of the Worklife News Alert, we will bring you all the results and highlights from the survey as well as take a look retrospectively at how things have changed since last year.

Also as promised, and as a thank you for taking the time to complete the survey, next month Worklife will name the one lucky respondent who will receive a complimentary one hour coaching session with a Worklife Coach. To be conducted either face-to-face if you are Sydney based or over the phone if not, this will provide you with an opportunity to discuss your own career plans.
