How to Find and Live Your Calling | Bryan Dik | TEDxCSU

The idea that work can be a calling is an old idea that is making a major resurgence in contemporary culture, not to mention within social science. "Calling" is a hot topic within psychology and management; the number of empirical studies on work as a calling has increased more than tenfold within the last decade, and shows no signs of slowing.
Bryan J. Dik, Ph.D., is Associate Professor of Psychology at Colorado State University and Co-founder of jobZologyTM. He has published widely on topics related to work as a calling; meaning and purpose in career development; measurement of vocational interests; and career counseling interventions. Bryan is co-author of Make Your Job a Calling: How the Psychology of Vocation Can Change Your Life at Work, and co-editor of two other books: Psychology of Religion and Workplace Spirituality and Purpose and Meaning in the Workplace.
This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at ted.com/tedx

    I work in finance in a Level 1 Trauma hospital in Metro NY & I say this ALL THE TIME. Our ‘custodians’-as if it should have a negative connotation-are in a dept. called Environmental Services & they are some of the kindest, hardest working people who take great pride in their jobs- and EVERYONE knows it.

    Wow!!! Such powerful stories!! I read What Color is Your Parachute many years ago and I keep revisiting it from time to time and it amazes me how the “flower” keeps developing and as I keep developing and growing in my experience, knowledge and skills. The book is hands down the best self-help guide that one can find! The book changed my life! Note: Stephen Covey, the author of 7 Habits of Highly Effective People highly recommended the book.
