?????????????????? & ?????????????? ???????????????? – Are You Responsible for Your Career Growth?
When we are working with a corporate, most of us, think that the organisation you work for will take care of your career growth, or else, your manager is there to worry for your growth.
Just think if that is really true?
What is the priority for the organization? Is it its own growth as a business entity or is it the career of each and every employee?
For sure it is the first one? Do not be in a fools’ paradise.
It could be true sometimes that when you organization grows, you grow along with that, but not always. May be, your career choices are not getting aligned with your organization expansion. May be you want to do something else from life and career.
In the end, you have to own it completely, without any blame or complaint for anyone. Following are simple steps that you need to take and embark on career options to own it completely.
Step 1: Make a vision in your mind what kind of job content and environment you want, and what compensation. Make sure that is exciting and realistically achievable in the market place and there are enough opportunities around.
Step 2: Make yourself capable of achieving that vision, start learning any new technical skills or soft skills like leadership skills if you feel. Most people do not invest in their own growth, rather expect from their employer to train them, which does not happen. Also, very importantly, learn the leadership skills that will help you move forward much faster.
Step 3: Find a Coach or a Guide – Find someone you can trust upon, who will hold you in every stepping-stone, who will challenge you to move on an extra mile, and who can really act as your accountability partner to help you move faster in your career. A coach can help in the above two steps and more; to help you achieve your career goals much sooner than otherwise. Can you do on your own, without any ones’ help? Possible, but very difficult, most people cannot. But the irony is, that you are not aware of your potential which you can realize with the help of your coach, and you would remain under-achieved and finally will settle down with all you can, thinking that it is your destiny. So the bottom-line, take affordable risks, go out of your comfort zone and try things out.
Would always love to know your comments or observations?
