Hope-Filled Engagement: New Possibilities in Life/Career Counselling
Hope-Filled Engagement: New Possibilities in Life/Career Counselling, a sequel to the popular Active Engagement by Dr. Norman Amundson, addresses the increasing diversity and complexity that life/career practitioners encounter in working with multi-barriered clients. It seeks to create an environment of hope for people, focusing on tools and processes that combine a wholistic worldview (including creativity, spirituality, connectedness, values, and life balance) with sound contemporary career concepts. It is a person-centered, solution-focused, hope-focused approach that engages people where they are engaged with life and that equips them to walk their life/career paths with dignity whatever the challenge.

Hope-Filled Engagement fits well within an Aboriginal perspective because it respects and honours our ways of including community, incorporates storytelling in a positive way, and helps individuals see a new vision for their future … this resource can be used immediately and with confidence by employment coaches, educators, and human resource managers.
Trina Bučko, National Director, Organizational iInclusion Strategies
Aboriginal Human Resource Council of Canada
Hope-Filled Engagement is the next evolution in career development theory. This book is like having Gray and Norm with you as coaches while you motivate and engage young people in their career life path. We have used many of the activities as part of our Guiding Circles Training for teachers. The activities are creative, relevant, and fun, and most importantly they work!
Lorna McPherson, Guidance program Coordinator
Toronto District School Board
This book serves as our “whack on the side of the head,” forcing us to rethink our approach to career crafting our life/career journey. The resource is practical, intelligent, and passionate. The book contains in equal measure imagination, creativity, and optimism with a spiritual connection to bring about the change we want to see in the world.

This book puts forth a strong foundation that will engage you in deconstructing your own practices, challenge your thinking on cultural relevance and specificity, and assist you in inspiring clients to engage in remarkable visioning of their life work future.
