Is Your Career in the Fast Lane, Slow Lane, or Exit Lane?

Rob Moore

Now is a great time to check in on your career and think about the future. The world of work is changing, and it's important to be prepared for what's coming.

Step 1: Define Your Ideal Job


What would make a job ideal for you? Think about the tasks, responsibilities, and situations that you enjoy. Write down your "likes" and "dislikes" in a list. Then, consider your boundaries and what would be on your "Ideal" and "Would Consider" lists for location, reward, and work style.


Step 2: Identify Your Skills


What skills do you have? Make a list of your business, technical, soft, and life skills. Add to the list every day by asking friends, family, and colleagues for their input. Also, look at your CV, appraisals, and feedback to get more ideas.


Next Steps


Spend some time thinking about how you can use your skills to reach your career goals. Make a realistic plan for what you want to do next, whether it's staying in your current role or pursuing a new one.


Conclusion


By taking the time to think about your career, you can be more prepared for the future. Make sure you're in the fast lane, not the slow lane or exit lane!
