Good Work Modelling

The one-page way to reinvent your work at any stage

Good Work Modeling is a core experience offered by GOVguild helping APS members to reinvent their work at any stage of life. By mastering the single-page, four-step modeling method, Business Model You®, individuals gain career clarity and confidence. The Core Experience is designed by GOVguild's in-house Certified Business Model You® Facilitator and is unique to GOVguild.

Good Work Modeling empowers individuals to transform their work lives by designing and building a better and more meaningful job without necessarily having to quit and find a new one or search for some non-existent dream job.
