Part A – Download the Genogram Template to create a genogram of your family of origin
with the career information about your parent(s), sibling(s), aunt(s), uncle(s), and
grandparent(s).

Initial Post:
Along with the Genogram, in your initial post, highlight any patterns of influences you
notice about familial career choice along with the impact these careers have or have
had on your career choice. Also, discuss how the communication of expectations for
you to pursue a certain vocation may have impacted your past, current, and future
career choice.

Responses:
Choose one of your classmates’ Genograms and apply a theoretical framework (e.g.,
Holland’s, Developmental Theory, etc.). As a result, comprise a list of questions to help
facilitate integration of theory. See the case studies within the chapters surrounding
theory.

Part B – Dissatisfaction
W4 Video Discussion: Career Dissatisfaction
Review the Video Discussion Requirements for this course before responding to the
prompt below.

John Holland’s Theory is one of the most well-known career theories, among others
mentioned in the text. Holland’s Theory seeks to “match” individuals with careers
based on their personalities. Consider the following case study:

Janna, a 36-year-old African American female, was a successful attorney who recently
became a partner in a medium-sized firm in Denver. Without warning, she tendered her
resignation. She sought counseling for depression; she told her therapist she had quit
because she was no longer enjoying her work. She was resentful of the long hours and
the demands the other partners made. Her therapist suggested she also seek career
counseling.

Janna finished her baccalaureate degree in psychology at a small Midwestern liberal
arts college. She chose psychology based on her interests in working with people,
particularly children, and her close friends told her she was a good listener. Janna said
she really enjoyed her classes in psychology so much she decided to volunteer at a
crisis line during her senior year. She was also a resident advisor during her junior and

senior years. Janna did well in college and her college advisor suggested she apply to
graduate programs.

Janna decided to become an attorney because that is what her fiance was studying
and believed it would be a good way for them to remain in the same physical location.
Although she had only minimal interest in the law, Janna believed combining law and
psychology would be enjoyable. She attended the same law school as her fiance and
excelled. Janna was particularly interested in litigation, while her fiance was interested
in corporate law. She passed the bar exam on the first try, and her fiance failed three
times, ultimately choosing another career. Their relationship ended. Janna was quite
depressed by the ending of her engagement but chose to move to another city to work
and, hopefully, to meet a new man.

Janna joined a law firm right after law school. She impressed the attorneys with her
diligence and willingness to work extra hours. She soon became the associate that
partners vied to have assigned to them. Janna worked hard and enjoyed some of the
work assigned, although she also found some of it boring. The partners voted to make
her a partner a year earlier than she had expected. Once Janna became a partner, she
began to question her activities and values and, in general, became depressed, again.
Although she had dated occasionally, she did not really have any time to devote to a
relationship. She also did not have much time to make friends outside of the law firm,
and she felt that her life was too focused.

Initial Post:
Create a video post and share how you would explain Janna’s behavior from the
perspective of Holland’s Theory. What specific hypotheses would you develop about
Janna from that perspective? How does using Holland’s theory help you understand
Janna? How might it help Janna understand herself? Evaluate Janna’s behavior from
another theory mentioned in the text, or from another source. Discuss how an
alternative theory could help Janna better understand herself. What additional
resources might you use?

Responses:

Create a video response to your peers’ initial posts and focus on which theory would
better assist Janna in her career search.
