Career Growth

Career Growth

Luck or deliberate plan

Enrol In A Program

The essence of career development lies in purposefully directing effort and resources towards progress in learning, work and life

It’s a chariot for our talents, ambitions, ideas, interests, aspirations realised in an outer world for the benefit of many

Career development framework

There are many career development frameworks, ultimately, they come to the same logical stages of:


Self-assessment


Research and Explorations of career options


Committing to goals and planning the road ahead


Acting and gaining experience in pursuit of a goal

This is a repeatable, non-linear process and each step can contain all stages of the framework until you are able to make a choice and commit to it.

This framework is only half-effective if regarded outside the context of the whole life

It’s not a rocket science, but the devil is in detail, or rather in content of each stage, in finding meaningful connections, triggers, interdependencies, in arriving at the puzzle that clicks

When framework is isolated from the whole life context, one risks to “put a ladder against the wrong wall”, chase somebody’s ideals, keep looking for extra boost of motivation, ultimately falling short of one’s own expectations and dreams.

Career development as an inherent part of your life philosophy

Career development needs to be viewed in the context of your unique and very original life philosophy

Doing so not only changes the meaning of the career development process, but adds depth and significance because consciously or subconsciously, we are all led by our purpose. Even if it’s not clear to you and even if you believe you don’t have one.

Knowing your own purpose, which means answering “who you are and what is important to you and why” is a complete game changer.

It’s like becoming a Wi-Fi that sends a clear signal and attracts the right people and right situations

This separates essential from non-essential, making one smart and deliberate about their actions

It’s about pursuing what is meaningful to YOU

Career reenvisioning

Career recalculation that requires re-envisioning self is a strategic project

If you are in a situation when your job is “killing your soul” or drains any positive energy out of your life and you are afraid to take a risk of pursuing something more meaningful, it’s understandable

Downshifting and radical changes are not for everyone

Some may require working on achieving changes in non-radical ways

Some will say, it’s a luxury to pursue something that makes you happy

But for others, it’s a question of “life and death of their soul”

Whatever is your reason that drives career development, start by asking:

What is your life’s work for you?

What are you really making?

Is it money, significance, impact, self-expression?

Each of the components will have a place but will produce a very unique to you mix

This is your subconscious blueprint that holds the keys to everything there is in your life

It’s like a puzzle, every element matters: personality type, talents and interests, purpose threaded through your vision and every goal, 10 000 hours of fine tuning skills, building support network, feeling into your path, experimenting, and allowing life’s serendipity in.

Only in combination they create a complete picture

Career Growth with new meanings

People want to feel satisfied at their work

Modern era of 3D change is reshaping the way we live and work. It literally rewires our brain with new meanings.

Work to us now is a completely different thing than it was for our parents and grandparents. This is normal.

Research shows that people want to be engaged, they want to have mastery of their subject matter, they want to know that what they do at work- matters.

We can see in real life that an ill-fitting job can literally “kill”, whilst people who find their job purposeful report five times higher well-being

It’s of no surprise. “Love, work and energy” are the foundational pillars that a human being needs for a sound mind and living a “good life”

Yet, most people never really designed their careers, it sort of happened to them and the approach to career planning and development remains largely “do-it-yourself”

No wonder, a staggering amount of people say that they would prefer to be doing something else for a living if they had a chance

The “lucky” ones who discovered their silver-lining, never look back

The majority of people though, falls into two other groups: those who tried to find it and gave up and those who continue trying despite anything ...

... Simply because, there is a calling within that can’t be silenced

heading_title

I believe that each and every one of us has a greater plan in life and career is just a vehicle, the importance of which to you, will determine “what” and “how” of your career development

If you are not ready to give up and ready to be an architect of your life and career, our program can be a good start
