My goal in this paper is to present what is referred to as the life design paradigm as a new, viable approach to career design which takes into account the new contexts cursorily outlined above. Drawing on the notion of chaos as a tool for describing today’s world, I seek to show how the concept can help us conceptualise the changing systems of work organisation, people’s biographies and applicatory potentials of career counselling theories. By doing this, I to make the case for the pertinence and utility of the intervention model proposed by Mark L. Savickas and his collaborators.
