8 Career Exercises

OTCHO’s 8 Career Exercises program is a series of eight workshops to find and create meaningful work through practical exercises.

The sessions are based on 200+ hours of research in scientific papers and curated books. 108+ professionals came before you, with an average rating of 4,2/5.

1 | The 8 P’s of Work

The ‘8 P’s of Work’ are eight motivators structured in a framework to reflect on their order and magnitude of importance.

2 | 5Why & Limiting beliefs

Dive deeper into the ‘Why’ of your top three motivators from the first session. Investigate limiting beliefs.

3 | Success & Energy tracking

Question what ‘success’ should look like. Re-learn how to listen to yourself thanks to energy givers and takers.

4 | Personality testing

Use personality tests to help you understand yourself better. Focus on strengths, weaknesses and career goals.

5 | Re(vived) interests

Walk around a bookstore to reflect on your possibly deeply stored-away interests.

6 | Dream grid & Reality grid

Invoke the opposite question of the ‘dream’ job. No picture perfect, time to look at it from a different perspective.

7 | Personal values

Dive deeper into the ‘P’ of personality: trigger complete honesty and search for your personal values.

8 | Bringing it all together

Because we can’t trust our short-lived motivations & memory: bring your insights together in a visual reminder board.

What people say

Jef

OTCHO created a practical and tangible approach to tackle the endless list of things I could be doing.
This manual helped me figure out what to prioritize. I now understand better which topics I get my energy from.
Shannon

I have reconsidered my next career moves more than once. I read books, listened to podcasts… though making sense of it all my has always been overwhelming. I never knew where to start.
OTCHO helped me to learn about my needs, while also understanding that what I was feeling was OK!
Margot

Thanks to OTCHO, I became so much wiser in which direction I want to go.
To me, it was a surprise how practical it all turned out to be, and how enjoyable. The facilitation made it light and funny, which I wouldn’t have expected.
Gilles

Thanks to OTCHO, I got to know the tips, tricks and frameworks that enabled Aurélie to find meaningful work content and a fresh start after bore-out.
As an eternal doubter myself, it was well worth the ride to get some more clarity on my own career choices.
Alberto

I thought I knew myself quite thoroughly already. However, as I kept doing the exercises, I realized that many things I thought I knew were actually untrue, or deeply influenced by external factors.
I’m happy I gave it a try and ended up challenging deeply rooted beliefs.
