How do you measure your career happiness?

由人工智能和领英社区提供技术支持

Career happiness is a subjective and dynamic concept that depends on many factors, such as your values, goals, interests, skills, personality, environment, and relationships. It is not something that you can easily quantify or compare with others, but rather something that you can reflect on and evaluate for yourself. In this article, we will explore some ways to measure your career happiness and how to use them to guide your career path planning.

1 Identify your career drivers

One way to measure your career happiness is to identify your career drivers, or the aspects of work that motivate and satisfy you. These can include intrinsic factors, such as autonomy, mastery, purpose, and creativity, or extrinsic factors, such as income, status, security, and recognition. You can use tools such as the Career Values Card Sort or the Career Anchors Inventory to help you clarify your career drivers and rank them in order of importance.

This is the basis of the work that I do as a career clarity coach! To know what truly drives and motivates you, when it comes to your career, is a must. Your career drivers are the things that make you feel fulfilled and with a sense of purpose when it comes to your job. It's important to note that this is not a 'one-time job', but it's important that you do this type of self-analysis regularly. For instance, at the beginning of your career, recognition, and purpose might be at the very top, and once you start a family, security, and income might swap places and be your two main motivators. The important thing is to always be clear about what is a 'must' for you when it comes to work so that you always feel happy and valued.

2 Assess your career fit

Another way to measure your career happiness is to assess your career fit, or the degree of alignment between your career drivers and your current or desired work situation. You can use frameworks such as the Person-Environment Fit Theory or the Job Characteristics Model to help you evaluate how well your work matches your needs, preferences, abilities, and expectations. You can also use feedback, performance reviews, or self-assessments to gauge your level of satisfaction, engagement, and fulfillment in your work.

3 Explore your career options

A third way to measure your career happiness is to explore your career options, or the range of possibilities that are available or feasible for you in the present or future. You can use methods such as the Holland Codes or the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator to help you identify your career interests and personality types and how they relate to different occupations and industries. You can also use research, networking, or informational interviews to learn more about the realities, challenges, and opportunities of various career paths.

4 Set your career goals

A fourth way to measure your career happiness is to set your career goals, or the specific and realistic outcomes that you want to achieve or pursue in your work. You can use models such as the SMART or the GROW framework to help you define your career goals and break them down into actionable steps. You can also use tools such as the Career Action Plan or the Career Development Plan to help you organize and track your progress and results.

5 Review your career progress

A fifth way to measure your career happiness is to review your career progress, or the extent and quality of your achievements and growth in your work. You can use indicators such as the Career Success Scale or the Career Development Profile to help you measure your career progress and compare it with your expectations and aspirations. You can also use reflection, feedback, or mentoring to help you celebrate your successes, identify your areas of improvement, and adjust your plans accordingly.

6 Balance your career and life

A sixth way to measure your career happiness is to balance your career and life, or the harmony and integration of your work and personal domains. You can use concepts such as the Work-Life Balance Theory or the Boundary Theory to help you understand and manage the demands, conflicts, and synergies between your career and life roles and responsibilities. You can also use strategies such as prioritizing, delegating, scheduling, or self-care to help you cope with stress, maintain your well-being, and enjoy your career and life.

Work-life balance depends on your company's values and your ability to build balance for your team and draw boundaries for yourself. However, work-life integration is becoming just as crucial in today's world. Leaders need to set the example of stepping away from work to manage their lives. Work-life integration is the enhancement of work-life balance. It is about understanding what is important to each individual on your team and making the important things in life possible. Companies ask employees to do more with less and simultaneously struggle with retention and employee engagement. Work-life integration will only be possible when we invest in relationships and make it okay to step away from work when necessary.

When evaluating and measuring your career happiness, you first have to consider that your wants and desires, your needs and priorities, and your environmental situations will change. And therefore, what gives you happiness in your career will also carry with it, different phases as your priorities evolve. When you’re young and ambitious, financial independence might be your baseline for happiness, but that may not be the same after having children or needing to care for an ill parent. You may then value being more flexible in your career if your care-taker responsibilities become the biggest priority. Keeping a firm grip on those priorities can often help drive fulfillment and happiness with your career and the choices you end up making.
