Book description
If you work full-time for forty years, you will spend over 80,000
hours on the job. With this much time invested, author Donna Dunning
asserts, your career should be interesting, motivating and rewarding.
In her highly-acclaimed first book, What's Your Type of Career?
Dunning delivered a set of powerful tools that for the first time
linked personality type to career success and helped thousands of
individuals chart a path to professional growth and greater job
satisfaction. This follow-up book, 10 Career Essentials, tells readers
how to further use their personality type to tailor their career
success strategies to their personal preferences. Each chapter
describes one career success strategy--such as optimizing your
outlook, exceeding expectations and thriving amidst
uncertainty--providing self-assessment tools and tips to stimulate
learning and improve your ability to implement a personal career
strategy to its fullest.
This was the easiest book to endorse that I have ever come across. I

plenty of ways to enhance my strengths and tackle my weaknesses, and
what is more, it helped me to better understand others. A great
personality guidebook full of riches. A" -Sir John Whitmore, PhD,
