According to designing your life burnett and evans, workview is your philosophy of work. It states what work means to you in general. It defines what good work deserves to be. However, it is not a job description.

A workview answers the following questions.

  • Why work?
  • What’s work for?
  • What does work mean?
  • How does it relate to the individual, others, society?
  • What defines good or worthwhile work?
  • What does money have to do with it?
  • What do experience, growth, and fulfillment have to do with it?

According to Burnett and Evans, a workview is a necessary complement to a lifeview in creating one’s life compass.

Here is my workview.
