  1. Aligning your Work with your Values Presented by the Lawyers Assistance Program Facilitated by Robert Bircher

  2. Work and Values • Get a job you love and you will never have to work a day in your life! • The first step in career change is self assessment-looking internally not externally (for the perfect job) • This involves a rigorous investigation of your personal strengths and preferences • These are your interests, skills, values, people contact, work environment

  3. Work and Values • Values-”intangible guiding principles and goals that bring meaning to your work and motivate your involvement and commitment” • For example-recognition, variety, intellectual challenge, helping others etc. • If your work clashes with your values you will experience an unsettling doubt about whether you are doing the right thing. This could be subtle or quite obvious

  4. Work and Values • Some lawyers may only need to make minor adjustments-ie do yoga at lunch instead of obsessing about files at the local greasy spoon restaurant • Some may need to make a radical career change • Law is not the problem-what you need to focus on is your relationship with the law • How can I alter this relationship so it is more consistent with my values?
