What career goals have you set for 2014? It's important to take stock of what went well, what didn't, and what you'd like to see different in your career this upcoming year. Some questions to consider:
1) What do you want to do more of, less of, or differently in your career this coming new year?
2) How robust is your network? Who would you like to add to your network? How can you stay in better contact with your network?
3) Are you seeking a promotion or a raise? It's important to know your market value so you have a basis for discussion if you find that you're being underpaid.
4) If you rated your satisfaction level in your current job from 1 to 10 with 10 being high, where would you fall? If you're not as satisfied as you'd like, what steps can you take to improve that number? Do you need to learn some new skills? Can you find a better fit within your current company? Do you need to look for work elsewhere?
Invest some time to take a career inventory for this year and set goals for next year. Just the simple act of writing down your goals increases your chances of achieving them.
