Our secret sauce - career well-being
Few people know how important career well-being is to their happiness. Research from Gallup and others shows that “I like what I do each day,” including what’s studied in school, has the most influence on a person’s well-being (more than financial, social, physical aspects) Career Key helps you strengthen it through a holistic approach to Holland’s Theory of Career Choice and other research-based activities.
