A "career anchor" is a combination of perceived areas of competence, motives, and values relating to professional work choices. The Career Anchors instrument is designed to help clients identify their anchors and to think about how their values relate to their career choices.
There are eight career anchors:
* Technical/Functional Competence
* General Managerial Competence
* Autonomy/Independence
* Security/Stability
* Entrepreneurial Creativity
* Service/Dedication to a Cause
* Pure Challenge
* Lifestyle
We believe that every person is concerned to some degree with each of these issues. The label "career anchor" indicates an area of such paramount importance to a person that he or she would not give it up. The person comes to define his or her basic self-image in terms of that concern, and it becomes an overriding issue at every stage of their career.
