Steps to Career Development

The One About Careers

Thanks so much for tuning into our third podcast episode where we explain the career
development process, emphasizing that it’s not a linear path, but, rather, a cyclical
journey.
We discuss the importance of self-assessment, researching career options, making a decision, and evaluating that decision, which suggests that career exploration is not a “one and done” process, but one that is continuous throughout an individual’s work life.
We mention the idea of a career lattice, emphasizing that careers can involve lateral moves and not just upward progression. Overall, we underscore the dynamic and
evolving nature of careers.
