to last like pyramids are
now more like tents …

life around a temporary
structure

9. Extracts from ‘The Age of Unreason’
Charles Handy - Author, Philosopher
Specialist in Organisational Behaviour and Management
To reinvent work in its fullest sense we need
another word. ‘Portfolio’ might be that word.
A portfolio is a collection of different items,
but a collection that has a theme. The whole is
greater than the parts.
….A work portfolio is a way of describing how
the different bits of work in our life fit together
to form a balanced whole

10. You spend more waking
hours at work than any
other activity. Life is too
short so why be unhappy?
Take the 'leap of faith' and
do what you love!
Steve Preston
Career Coach, Author, Speaker,
Facilitator and Consultant

16. Gail Gibson (Business Performance Coach) – quote 2010
“Like a colourful umbrella, with each segment a
different colour, you represent the unique parts of your
working lifestyle. Together these segments create a
beautiful synergy of colour and expertise.
Together they offer a canopy of choice to best suit the
individual needs of your range of clients and passions.
With a firm grip on your colourful umbrella, you can
enjoy the challenge, fulfilment and freedom of having
a portfolio of choice”

19. …..to suit your work-life
blend and income needs
Combine and vary
any part …..
