THE ICS APPROACH

Picture
Inspired by Joseph Campbell's 'The Hero's Journey' motif, The Implicit Career Search applies Dr. Will Schutz's FIRO Theory to the Internal Journey to guide participants to make their career decision from the very core of who they are - their essence. Miller's Career Development Spectrum provides the steps and stages required to cultivate that work purpose into a successful, contributing, career.
The goal of all Implicit Career programs is to teach participants how to develop and cultivate a comprehensive strategy that will guide their life's work.

The Implicit Career approach to career decision making and development is based on the following tenets:
  • Each of us has something unique to contribute to our society
  • Each of us has an innate desire to deliver this contribution

This contribution:
  • Is implicit—available but perhaps not apparent—to each individual. It is our primary source of motivation and can most effectively be located or 'remembered' by removing much of the false beliefs, inaccurate labels and defensive behaviours we have accumulated (Modules 1 and 2)

  • This work purpose will form the foundation of a successful career

  • Can effectively be planned out and described fully in six identifiable stages 
             
  • Each stage can be explored at different levels of depth, from superficial to profound. All levels are useful for exploration.


Implicit Career participants are not told what job to pursue; they are provided with tools to help them discover, define and develop their career path

This approach has been studied, tested and found to significantly:


  • Increase results of Provincial and Federal Employment Programs. Increase engagement and retention in the workplace.
  • Decrease training costs in the workplace.
  • Be embraced by all walks of life: youth, elderly, first nations, prisoners, employees in transition, entrepreneurs, disabled, university students even disgruntled career counsellors.

"I have known Steve and his work for about 15 years. Having been certified in the Implicit Career Search as well as a practitioner, it has been my pleasure to experience its power first hand. Helping others determine a career that truly "fits" their character structure and their live's purpose is a beautiful process. People become energized with vision and passion for a future they can really imagine. The tools they take away from this work enable participants to move forward towards their vision in a deliberate way. Steve's work is pioneering and the longitudinal results speak for themselves." Brian Warren, Senior Associate at Partners for Performance, Rangely, Maine, USA.
