Conclusion… “Who Am I?” Professional Edition, Part 6
To recap this series, we’ve explored:
- Part 1: Get on YOUR Path to Success explored the importance of understanding who you are can contribute to a feeling of personal success.
- Part 2: The Manager path.
- Part 3: The Specialist path.
- Part 4: The Entrepreneur path.
- Part 5: The Generalist / Project Manager path.
To wrap up, we’d like to challenge you to think about which path you identify most with. Maybe its one, maybe its a combination of a few. The important thing is that you understand where you are and where you want to go. If they aren’t aligned, the theory could give you some interesting insight into where to go next with your career.
Now is a great time to do a quick self-check regarding which of the aforementioned career paths seem to best describe your career preference in the future based on your own interests, values, motives and skills. And the real question is whether or not there is something else you could be doing that would make you happier?
Stay tuned for next week when we’ll begin to explore another aspect of careering known as you Career Stage.
