The average person spends 90,000 hours at work over their lifetime, so how you spend your days is how you spend your life. It’s important to invest in your career and get this right. Career planning and development don’t have to be a constant struggle or something that’s always confined to the too-hard basket.

Most people’s careers are incremental or accidental. They start in a job and as new opportunities come along, they weigh them up and from time to time, make job changes. They don’t have a clear view of where they want their career to be in 5-6 years, let alone a plan for getting there. If this is you, then you may not be fulfilling your career potential. You may not be doing the best possible work that you can, nor be as happy, fulfilled or rewarded as you could be from your work. 

Another scenario might be that you’ve
had a great career however you have now reached a point where you’re thinking
of change. You may for example be wishing to move on from the corporate world,
professional services partnership or owning your own business.

Questions you may be asking;

How do I work out what’s next for me?

How do I navigate the transitions necessary for successful change?

How do I achieve a better balance between my personal life and my career?
