The Anderson School is
pleased to announce the availability of an exciting career development tool,
CareerLeader®, to our alumni at a substantial discount. CareerLeader® assesses
one's unique pattern of interests, values and abilities —three critical
variables in finding the right career path. It was developed over 10 years ago
by two psychologists from the Harvard Business School and is used by over 250
business schools around the world. It provides a comprehensive on-line
assessment tool that will profile your career and business interests, work
values, strengths, weaknesses, and organizational fit. It makes specific
recommendations on business careers and corporate cultures for you to explore,
provides information about your "entrepreneurial attributes," and helps
identify and correct for a career "Achilles Heel." CareerLeader® is an
interactive, online program which takes full advantage of the Internet,
allowing you to work at your own pace and on your own time. All of the results
are 100% confidential, and individual privacy is guaranteed. To explore the
program, take the "guided tour" of the site:
If you decide you want to use CareerLeader®, just indicate that you are an
Anderson alum on the ordering page and you will automatically receive a $20
discount off the cost of the program. Also, for those alumni who used
CareerLeader® while at UCLA Anderson, you now have ongoing access to look up
your final results at no cost. The assessment includes 3 sections, and each
section can be completed separately, since CareerLeader will save and store
your assessment. Allow 1 ½ to 2 hours to complete all 3 sections.
CareerLeader® as "360 Degree Feedback" Tool
CareerLeader can also be used as a “360 Degree Feedback” tool, which means that
you can get others’ (co-workers, boss, colleagues, significant others)
perspectives on your abilities and interests by having them complete the
assessment about you. Details about using CareerLeader as a 360 Degree Feedback
tool can be found by clicking on the link below:
