Personal narratives of some eminent people / Belle Wallace -- The realtionship between narrative career counseling, emotional intelligence (EI) and social-emotional learning / Maurice Elias and Reuven Bar-On
Summary: "Current career counselling needs a shift away from the practice of modern counselling approaches, and narrative therapy is likely to be particularly appropriate, since it is part of the culture and way of life of the majority of our clients. For the very first time, current approaches have been brought together in one publication. Eminent scholars, including Larry Cochran, Mark Savickas, and Norm Amundson, Paul Hartung and John Winslade, contributed to the publication. Personal narratives of some exceptionally eminent people, including Robert Sternberg are also included. The publication is concluded by Reuven Bar-On and Maurice Elias, who delineate the connection between storied counselling and social and emotional learning. This book provides a priceless resource for scholars, academics, researchers, psychologists, teachers and clients. It critically analyses germane questions, such as "How vital and feasible is it to build on life stories in career counselling?", examines the theoretical underpinnings and practical applications of hermeneutic-narrative, postmodern and constructivist approaches to career counselling, provides practical guidelines on the practice of narrative counselling in different contexts, presents ideas on how to engage clients actively, suggests ways of using life story counselling (including the Career-Story Interview) to produce new identities for career practice."
