title: Thriving in chaos: personal and career development.
abstract: The rapidly changing workplace demands that people who manage their careers explore the dangers and the opportunities for themselves personally. This includes accepting the reality of the current environment that indicates 50 percent of the eight jobs an average American will hold will terminate involuntarily. Grieving about previous life and job expectations may be necessary to take advantage of the extensive opportunities available. Developing, implementing, and evaluating a life and career plan are essential to thriving in this chaos.
