We're nearing the end of the year! What career goals did you set for yourself this year? Are you on track? It's important to take time at the beginning of each year to set some goals- and put them to paper! Just the act of writing down your goals increases your chance of achieving them. Then each month review your goals to see if you're on track and make any necessary adjustments.
One of my career goals for the year was to land a new contract with an outplacement agency, i.e., one that helps laid-off workers. And, I'm happy to report I achieved that goal just last month! How about you? What goals did you achieve? For the ones you didn't reach, what adjustments can you make to the goal or what action steps can you take to achieve those goals?
To help assess where you're at in your career, take this career check-up. This exercise can help identify any gaps that may get in the way of your career success. You can then determine what action steps you can take to close those gaps.
