Citations in the corpus

• Narratives at work: the development of career identity (2012, unknown): “Supporters of this approach, such as Flum and Blustein (2000) and Bloch (2005), advocate a lifelong adaptive process of career exploration that is as unplanned and fortuitous as it is planned and systematic.”
• Applying Chaos Theory to Careers: Attraction and attractors (2007, background): “Most of these applications have been in clinical psychology but more recently career development writers have begun to display increasing interest in both chaos theory and complexity theory (Bloch, 2005; Bright & Pryor, 2005a).”
• Narrative career counselling: Theory and exemplars of practice (2007, background): “The STF captures the unpredictability of career influences which has been formulated as a source of naturally occurring chaos for a person’s career (e.g., Bloch, 2005; Pryor & Bright, 2003).”
• Calling in Work (2010, background): “For example, a number of theoretical models (e.g., Bloch, 2005; Brewer, 2001; Hansen, 1997; Miller-Tiedeman, 1994) commonly emphasize that spiritually or religiously minded individuals may make better use of religious and spiritual concepts in their career-related decision making (Duffy, 2006; Dik…”
• Calling and Vocation at Work (2009, background): “The connection of individuals’ religiousness and spirituality in their career development has been supported by a number of theoretical models, including those by Bloch (2005), Brewer (2001), Hansen (1997), and Miller-Tiedeman (1994).”
• Constructing career competency model of hospitality industry employees for career success. (2013, background): “People who are employed in the hospitality and convention industries follow a self-directed career, and they typically apply career mobility strategies to build their human capital and further their careers (Bloch, 2005; Finegold et al., 2000; McCabe, 2008).”
