Your Career Audit: Part One
Do you have a strategic career plan? Do you know where you want to be one year from now? How about 3, 5 and 10 years from now? Now is a great time of year to conduct a “career audit.” A career audit is your opportunity to assess how your professional life is going. It allows you to identify what is going well and areas in which you’d like to adjust course.
To begin your career audit, carefully assess your current job. This includes pinpointing what is going well and what you’d like to be even better. For the things that are going well, take time to pat yourself on the back for your successes. Write them out and keep them close at hand in your success file. (Keeping your accomplishments on file will help when it comes time for your annual review.)
Until next week…
