По умолчанию The substitution of the notion of "professionalism" the notion of "careerism"

Why should we build a career and become the first persons organizations? Perhaps, then, that makes us a successful career in the eyes of others successful. And why do we need a success? Probably because we want to "live beautifully, enjoy life and try to take from it all, and not just exist. It turns out that in fact we are looking for a way to improve our quality of life, and as a result of substitution of concepts (rather than improving the quality of life - meteoric career as an attribute of success) is included in an endless race.

Perceiving personal success as money, status, power, influence, we only managed to seize one of his attributes - a prestigious position, expensive cars, apartments, comparable in size to a football field - just think about the other "signs of success." It is not enough of a country house, property abroad, own aircraft ...

And what at this time is with a sense of life, its fullness and beauty? Why do some of the most successful top managers want to drop everything and go on the advice of a friend in Switzerland, where the "quiet" or even in Goa, where you can live "free and carefree. To the idea that life is "pretty nasty thing," visited less and less ...

If this conversation is you, dear reader, a painful response, then in the pursuit of success in frail condition of creative, intellectual, personal, spiritual and physical resources (the so-called resource status) and even, perhaps, come burnout (perceived indifference, apathy , the desire to work as little as possible). Man in the name of still unburned parts of his personality constructs "reverse" career - goes to posts or in areas with less responsibility and stress.

Would I call to abandon career aspirations and increasing their own welfare? Never. However, I suggest to work together to "immunity" against the "virus" unhealthy workaholism to avoid burnout.

What is this unhealthy workaholism?

No, the author does not intend to popularize parasitism. On the contrary, convinced of a workaholic, I think labor prerequisite health of individuals. But it is no less important sense of proportion. I know its "measure" is necessary before you have time to exceed the limit of its efficiency.

Find and observe a limit means to build your own optimal balance of "work - life". The principle of "50 to 50" is not the only possible one. For some, the optimal balance occurs because of the realization that the work can samorealizovyvatsya and regenerate itself as anything else. Then people will be busy with it and during leisure time, while work will remain a source of strength and energy.

For someone equally valuable, several areas of self-realization, and its maximum resource status depends on advances in each of them. Allow time approximately equal parts for each of these areas - the same version of the optimal balance of "work - life".

In any case, it should only be your decision, taken at the command of your own ego, and not under the influence of social stereotypes. To work fully without depleting their resources, not when you work, not because "we have something to live," there is nothing to sit on someone else's neck, "I will work hard - I notice, but because you love her case, you get pleasure from it. This is the first sign of a healthy workaholism - a key factor in achieving quality of life.

Unhealthy workaholism - it is not regular overload, and regular work without satisfaction. Each of us can bear any burden, if not feel their excesses, ie, the most engaged and satisfied - this is a healthy workaholism.

Does the decision "to increase the thickness of the skin and become less sensitive to the satisfaction of the results of labor, improve our quality of life, its fullness and excitement? Hardly. On the contrary, this way develops cynicism, which affects the quality of life, because invalidate any true achievement undermines the spiritual (through the appreciation of future generations) understanding of success.

The implementation itself with the maximum involvement and enjoyment in at least four different roles (such as professional, manager, friend, son /daughter, parent, spouse, mentor, etc.) simultaneously - the best way to manage the quality of life, according to many experts.

"Viruses", ruining healthy workaholism and lead to burnout

"The virus is success. Manifested in the irrepressible desire to have its attributes rather than the desire to create something great that can earn the recognition of posterity. This "virus" works through an understanding that in the race for the success of all involved, but "details of success" at all is not enough (otherwise they will cease to be such). Infected thereunder "virus" very afraid "does not have time to take", and therefore compresses the proper time to the limit.

Constant pressure of time - one of the basic causes of burnout. It may come as a professional field and in life. The main symptom of burnout in professional life - loss of pleasure from work, find reasons not to go to the office (there are more important things "). A common symptom of burnout in life - loss of enjoyment of life, from communication. It can reach absurd forms: a desire to confirm the fact of its existence, such as to offend someone. This choice "to hurt others" is based on self-assertion: "it is bad - I did it - means I have something I can."

Immunity from this "virus" depends on the definition of success is not through his "props", but through the recognition of future generations for the fact that a person has left his mark on the good earth.

"The virus careerism. The choice in favor of careerism (rapid career for which they were offered no other victims) under the pressure of stereotypes (the above post - more wealth, "money talks") reinforces the pressures of time irrespective of the decision regarding the balance of "work - life."

First is the fear of losing the race for a seat in the state of employer-"brand", then - in the race for the salary, the amount of which is "not a shame to say, for the prestigious post of the scope and level of influence, etc.

Why do we find careerists much more frequently than the professionals, if the professional provides energy for life more? Perhaps because they do not reflect on the modeling of our lives on the principle of "why?"

For example, consider the history of the life of Andrei Sakharov. Of course, Andrei Sakharov, creating a hydrogen bomb, was a professional, but it was still before they put in front of him referred to the task. His agreement to participate in this development - merely a career decision (level of "environment"), rather than move to the level of vision ( "What for?") With the level of identity ( "I am a great scholar"). But the Academy has remained in our memory is not due to a variant of the Soviet hydrogen bomb, but because he later became a fight for a ban on nuclear testing, for the protection of human rights, for the removal of Soviet troops from Afghanistan. It is this activity brought him success in the true sense - thanks to humanity, Confirmation and Nobel Peace Prize. This behavior is evidenced by Academician of the transition to the level of vision.

If the majority of modern managers chooses a simple problem ( "why should improve in the profession, if you can step to the next step and so?"), You work for money, ie, to do their job well, it is not necessary. So there is the culture of careerism rather than a culture of professionalism. Finally fixed the culture of careerism, which formed regular social stereotypes based on the substitution of concepts - which are beginning to call it professional careerists, which succeeded for a short time a lot of posts.

Research Specialists in career planning from the St. Petersburg International Management Institute suggests that a prerequisite of becoming a professional in any field is his work in this area at the same level of hierarchy for a period of not less than five years.

There is another view: in order to successfully build a career, you must change jobs at least once every three years. If you still trust the first of these two opinions, we conclude that a massive race for post significantly complicates the growth of professionalism in some areas.

The risk of career burnout pay "any price" is generated by the fact that in this case, the person loses the opportunity to draw strength in their own professionalism, dooming themselves to a perpetual fear of "intrigues". And this fear in a society with a dominant careerism justified - because the younger generation need somewhere to go. Convinced careerist always aiming to occupy an existing space (be it professional, would have created its own niche). It turns out that the hierarchy of senior careerists an example of the younger and younger, as you know, always copy the senior ...

By the way, professionalism - it is also a way to create a quality of life, not an end in itself. Get stuck on professionalism - come to the professional deformation due to ego and complacency. And get set for a career - come to a personal setback, will not be able to do their job well and enjoy the process of doing. There is no transition to the levels of values and vision.

If there is no correspondence between the growth of professional and career (including the horizontal), the completeness of self-realization (enough power to implement their plans), the feeling of little value either their own or someone else harm. The danger is that a long stay in the power of persuasion of his own low-value leads to depression, and a long stay in the power of persuasion of somebody's harmfulness generates terror.

"The virus nesamodostatochnosti. Impressive statistics of the Western world: about 75%of people employed unloved task. We'll already know that it is the loss of pleasure from that, what people are doing and what we get as a result of this employment is the main cause of burnout.

If we did not initially receive pleasure from what we are doing and have done a "sense of duty" or "big money" that preceded the more burnout and strain identity - "do not respect myself and the rest will make itself respected." Forced, as a rule, using the principle of "fear - hence respect. Is that why some leaders are beginning to spread around him panic and fear, fear of everything and everyone?

Under the influence of social stereotypes, one begins to assess themselves not at the level of values, recheck the extent to which adheres to them in their actions, but at the level of their environment. Prestigious it or not? How good is it takes? The pursuit of prestige and "fit" environment may encourage copy someone else's behavior. At desired environment may be quite different values than the one who is looking for his confession. And then he turns to the conflict of cultures.

Do not lose yourself, to maintain its resource designed to assist understanding and acceptance of themselves. Unfortunately, the Soviet past, adversely affected our ability to think independently, in particular to think about themselves and their prospects. We have become accustomed since childhood to accept themselves and others through involvement in Octobrists pioneer-komsomols ... more according to the nomenclature. At the same time, understanding themselves as individuals were irrelevant, the roles were assigned in advance to all: who - proletarian hegemony, but someone - an agent of the bourgeoisie "and did a sheer misunderstanding," layer ".

Now we need to learn to understand and accept themselves, but otherwise there is always the risk of getting stuck at the level of "encirclement" by blindly adopting the social attitudes of foreign companies. There is a version to go live out life somewhere in the more prosperous country. Downshifting "on a grand scale" might even attract. Only if he can afford each manager? And whether or not to drastically change your life?
