DOES ‘WHAT I DO’ EQUAL ‘WHO I AM’?
MENTAL HEALTH
From lawyer/chefs to concierge/playwrights and from student/GM’s to mum/CEOs, today’s most fulfilling lives are the ones filled with ‘slashies’. New York Times journalist/author Marci Alboher, discovered that more and more of us loathe to answer “What do you do?” with a singular definition. Marci interviewed hundreds of people pursuing multiple careers simultaneously - from a marketer/filmmaker to a ‘slash careers’ from a marketer/filmmaker to a management consultant/cartoonist - and discovered that 'slash careers' integrate and more fully express the multiple passions, talents and interests that a single career often cannot accommodate.
Mental health is the health of our emotional, psychological and social well-being and it impacts our ability to cope with normal life stressors, work productively and contribute to our communities. It is about our mental wellness but impacts all aspects of our lives from our physical health to our ability to learn, to develop relationships, and to reach our full potential.
SLASHIE
TRY IT NOW
Most of us have many strings to our bow - we are not defined by our job titles. Slashies find joy in their days by bringing all their talents to life in diverse ways such as chef/cyclist or concierge/student or manager/cellist.
At Accor we have thousands of ‘slashies’ finding they can be the real deal more, because they have the flexibility, variety and creativity of enjoying one, two or even more career strands that reflect who they really are. Do you have a job/passion that would help you be even more of the real deal?
