Career Diversity

Career Diversity

Career Diversity is the practice of working professionals cultivating multiple careers at the same time rather than making a job transition. The term was originally coined by Robert Echevarria on the popular business networking website LinkedIn who says he is career diversified as a mortgage planner/author/speaker.

This concept of career1/career2/career3 was developed by author Marci Alboher in her book [http://www.amazon.com/dp/0446696978 "One Person/Multiple Careers: A New Model for Work/Life Success."] , ISBN 978-0446696975.

The concept of Career Diversity was further brought into the light of modern employment when a June 2007 [http://www.businessweek.com/careers/content/jun2007/ca20070623_289706.htm?campaign_id=rss_null article] in "BusinessWeek" interviewed [http://www.heymarci.com/ Marci Alboher] about juggling professions.
