Do you know yourself, your values and what drives you? How do you match these values up with potential career choices? There is a lot of pressure on school leavers, students and graduates to follow certain career paths, but how well suited are these paths to the actual person? This episode explores the importance of understanding who you are and using this to inform your path, whilst encouraging listeners to undertake some practical actions.
1. Consider where you get your energy from? Are you an extrovert or an introvert? Are there certain times of the day / activities / people / topics who energise you?
2. What values are important to you? Can or do these link to a certain career path?
3. Consider the different groups of people who you can trust and go to for advice. Who is your personal advisory board?
