Part 1: Clarifying Goals
IN THIS LESSON
Skills are a core engine of sustainable career development. They enable strong performance, make progress visible, and support goal achievement–strengthening self-efficacy and intrinsic motivation along the way. In this chapter, you will map your current skill mix, understand how skills contribute to person–job fit, and develop a practical approach for building the capabilities you need for the next phase of your career.
Career skills timeline
This exercise encourages reflection on your life and career path to identify your job-related, transferable, and character skills acquired over time. This process involves identifying milestones and key moments, as well as hard, soft, and character skills acquired or used at different stages of your life. Reflecting on these skills helps you recognize patterns and create a comprehensive inventory. This inventory serves as a basis for shaping your career path and helps you set priorities for further development.
