Description
But there is a simple tool to help!
The Doom Loop is an elegant, intuitive, and simple career management tool designed to help you make smart, tactical career decisions and to help see you through the seven common crises that nearly everyone faces in their career. It can also help employers take appropriate actions to improve the productivity of their employees by understanding the nature and causes of boredom.
Created by the author in the 1970s, the Doom Loop is a 2x2 matrix to help you anticipate and solve problems related to boredom and frustration on the job. This deceptively simple tool can help you avoid making ill-advised job change decisions, and it can quickly give you confidence that a new opportunity will be the right one for you.
You don’t need to attend seminars or workshops to use this career management tool. The Doom Loop is straightforward and easy to use, yet powerful in its guidance—and it might just become the best friend you ever had on the job!

Will the following shock you or will you just shrug your shoulders and accept it as being “the way that it is”: “Two-thirds of the American workforce experience boredom and frustration on the job.” This is not a uniquely American problem either!
What a damning indictment this is. What a tremendous waste of time, money and resources. Can anything help? The author believes so in the form of his “Doom Loop”, described as an “elegant, intuitive and simple career management tool designed to help you make smart, tactical career decisions and to help see you through the seven common crises that nearly everyone faces in their career.”
This is going to be one of those things that you either seize upon and become an almost fanatical evangelist towards or you will file it away as just another self-help programme that possibly has a few good points. That determination is in your hands!
The author created in the 1970s a series of 2x2 matrices that he asserts will help you anticipate and solve problems related to boredom and frustration at work so you proceed with confidence and sidestep bad decisions and career roadblocks. It felt an interesting read despite being fairly heavy going at times. It could have done with a dose of “accessibility” and being a tad more inspirational.
This reviewer wasn’t wholly sold on the idea at a first look, despite finding quite a bit of interest. This might be one of those books that you should save until you really have a clear, uninterrupted period of time to intensely reflect and react. One couldn’t say it is bad, in any case, so maybe even if you don’t get sold on the whole enchilada, you might still break off a fair bit to nibble on?
