When John Holland introduced his theory more than 50 years ago, he sought to examine personal and environmental factors contributing to successful vocational decision-making and work satisfaction over a lifetime. Evidence that Holland achieved his goals can be seen in more than 2,000 publications citing RIASEC theory and its applications. This presentation will focus on the Self-Directed Search (SDS) and related materials/booklets. The webinar will highlight basic SDS interpretive ideas, including congruence and personality, as well as some supplementary or qualifying ideas, such as coherence of aspirations, profile elevation, consistency, differentiation, and commonness to help inform the professional judgment of career practitioners seeking to aid a variety of individuals.
