Stick or Bounce

A community for mid-career professionals.

If you love what you do but not always where you do it, this is the place for you. We’re building a community of experienced professionals who actively seek meaningful work that brings personal satisfaction.

Stick

If you’re happy and you know it, stay right where you are. When you’re in the right place, stick to it even if you have a bad day or week or month. True happiness can withstand momentary obstacles. We’ll help you optimize your job satisfaction.

Pivot

Perhaps your values match those of your workplace, but your current position there doesn’t offer the right mix of challenge or financial compensation. In that case, shelter in place. Stay there but change your role there. We’re here to help you ask the right questions at the right time.

Bounce

There’s a place for everyone. If your core values are a mismatch with your present employment situation, it’s time to make your move. Finding the right place isn’t always easy. Fortunately, we’re here to help you get started in the right direction.

Career Values Assessment for Real Professionals

15 minutes for the rest of your life. Take our values assessment to find out how happy you are at work. Spend a few minutes answering easy questions about your working style and what’s important to you. We’ll also ask questions to gauge how well your current work environment matches your core values.

At the end of the survey, we’ll provide an instant assessment to point you in the right direction and explain how to take advantage of our free support resources designed to improve your happiness at work. Where you go from there is up to you.

Community for Real People

Mid-career professional people form the core of our community. Finding happiness at work while navigating career growth is tough even for people who love what they do. The Stick or Bounce community is dedicated to the taking-work-home-for-real-all-week-long dad, i-really-hate-work-cations adventure traveler, the working-through-bronchitis-so-i-can-save-my-real-sick-days-for-my-kids mom, the really-need-this-promotion-so-i-can-remodel-my-house DIY-er and every other real person who works for a living.

Career coaches are an essential part of the Stick or Bounce community. If you provide independent career guidance in the form of individual counseling or professional development resources, please stick around: our professionals need your help making strategic pivots that help them find real enjoyment at work.

We encourage you to share authentic original advice as well as references to your content found in other locations. Promote your blog. Invite professionals to follow you on Twitter or LinkedIn. We’re all here to listen and learn from the best.

Hey, matchmaker! This is the place for you. Connect with experienced professionals looking for values-based employment referrals. Do your part to rescue great talent from less-than-great employers.

Recruiters have access to their members’ instant assessments so you can offer targeted advice and make great matches. Feel free to invite your entire network to join our community so you can gain real insight on who needs your help the most — and who’s happy where they are.

Stick or Bounce Project Beta

The goal of the Stick or Bounce project is to make values-based career guidance accessible on-demand to all knowledge workers. We’re currently seeking participants to help us validate the science behind our approach. If you’re a mid-career (5+ years’ experience) tech professional in the South Florida area, please request an invitation to join our community and get an instant career values assessment.

The assessment is specifically targeted at professionals who are currently employed as part of the questions relate to your current employment situation. If you are a tech professional who is currently seeking work, please use your most recent employer as a point of reference for the questions about your current employment situation.

  • I knew things were bad when I started crying every night after I left. Wish I’d had something like this before it got to that point.
