Work How You Are Wired: 12 Data-Driven Steps to Finding a Job You Love

It’s no secret that some people are just better suited to their jobs than others. It's time to find out why and how you can achieve this same success and happiness too.

Remember taking that career test in grade school where you were told you’d make a great federal judge or an exemplary lighthouse keeper? In this book, executive search CEO William Vanderbloemen takes that concept and maps it against hundreds of thousands of data points, forming a roadmap for all of us on how to choose careers that align with our personalities so that we are happy at work.

William has become an unlikely business expert over his long and continuing career. Combining over fifteen years of ministry experience as a Senior Pastor with the best practices of executive search, William created a brand-new industry: executive search for faith-based organizations. Prior to founding his own search company, William studied under a mentor with over twenty-five years of executive search at the highest level. William has surveyed thousands of people in the workforce. He’s asked what their job is and how they feel about them. I’ve also asked them to report their scores on leading personality assessments.

Now, in this groundbreaking guide, William helps you recognize the traits you possess that make you happy and then match those against your possible careers to find the best match.
