"A perceptive guide"--Publishers Weekly If you feel
drained and debilitated at work, or your work doesn't fulfill
your creativity, you may be among the 20 percent of the population
who are overwhelmed by job pressures. The Highly Sensitive Person
(HSP) is often intelligent, imaginative, empathetic, and
hyper-aware of surroundings. This sensitivity is part of being
passionate about work. But it can also make being in the work force
a painful trial. Based on cutting-edge research and extensive
interviews with hundreds of HSPs, Dr. Barrie Jaeger tackles the
problems and issues highly sensitive people face--including feeling
overwhelmed by work pressures, overstimulation in the workplace,
and lack of confidence. Building on the groundbreaking national
bestseller, The Highly Sensitive Person, she explains why
traditional work doesn't work for you--and what you can do
about it. Dr. Jaeger provides proven strategies to find work you
can embrace, not just endure, including: Identifying particular
aspects of any job that contribute to unhappiness Avoiding certain
jobs that don't work for HSPs and what to do to get out Finding
your true calling--and how to let a calling find you--and
discovering work that brings joy, creativity, and the greatest
level of satisfaction. Jaeger also includes exercises, ways to take
breaks (vital for stress relief) and provides helpful personal
assessment features. Making Work Work is an owner's manual for
highly sensitive people who want to discover how to love what they
do--and do what they love.
Barrie Jaeger, Ph.D., is known as 'The Self-Employment Doctor' and 'Work Purpose Coach.' She presents seminars and workshops on workplace issues for the HSP. Barrie contributes articles on work to the Comfort Zone, a newsletter for the Highly Sensitive Person, published by Elaine Aron.
