What Makes the
Meaningful Work Inventory different?
It's for you
The Inventory is intended to help you answer the question, “Where and how do I find meaning at work?”
so you can move toward more fulfillment in your daily worklife. It’s not about maximizing your productivity for your employer’s benefit.
It doesn’t label you or put you in a box
Unlike traditional personality or career tests, the Meaningful Work Inventory doesn’t force you into a limiting category or “type”. It helps you take stock of your current situation and identify ways to find more fulfillment and flow.
It’s empowering
The information you’ll find in your personal report and the discussion you’ll have with your Guide are not prescriptive. They’re designed to help you take control of your worklife by first helping you understand what you really want.
