The Career BluePrint - Take Ownership of your Career Path!

What is career guidance?  What does it actually mean vs the traditional thinking of it just focussing on the next job.

Learn about what imposter syndrome is?  An example of imposter syndrome and how can you overcome it?

Self reflection is key for you to make the most of this course and process.  Learn why this is in this lecture.

So, let's get started!  The first exercise is all about finding a quiet, comfortable place where you won't get disturbed.  Here I explain the 1st exercise and the templates to use - all the best!

Now that you have completed the first exercise, it is time now to complete the second exercise focussing on completing the PDPB template.   To capture your Proficiencies, Development, Potential and Blockers.  You will utilise the first exercise and this exercise outputs to complete the third exercise.

Now that you have completed the first two exercises, you are now ready to reflect on the insights gathered so far.  It takes time to digest these and adjust these so don't feel that you can't change what you have written already.  The third exercise will help to gather the findings so far and define them.  It's important to prioritise, review and understand your findings and document them in the 3rd Exercise Summarising Exercise 1-2 word document.

Learn about what vision, mission and values (VMA's) are and how you can create your own using the resources mentioned in the lecture.  You will need good time to reflect on these and important exercise that will define the direction of travel for your career strategy.

Additional guidance about values, to understand how to develop/understand your own.  See examples of values that are set from some popular companies, these can inspire you to set values for yourself.

Time to get specific now, it's all about actions that will take you closer to your goals and priorities.  We have set our VMA's, now its formulating what that means when we tie in time/dates.  What needs to happen daily to meet your monthly goals, quarterly, yearly etc.  This is how your manifested goals/objectives will be brought into reality as well as adjusted as you take your journey towards your purpose.

This lecture is all about continuous monitoring, reviewing and adjustments that might need to take place along your journey. 

Well done for making to the end of the course, you are now equipped with your own personalised Career Strategy!  Something that you can now own and adjust according to your wants, needs and take account of any changes/life events that might occur, which is natural!  It's been an absolute pleasure for me to be part of your career journey and bringing this evergreen technique to you.
