THE ART&SCIENCE OF AND PRACTICAL APPROACH TO CAREER PLANNING (DEVOID OF JARGONS !!!):-
1)As highlighted in both Header&Sub-header Plan a Career and not a Job.This way instead of possible Disparate JOB-HOPPING (Possibly with no or limited connection to each change) at every change,Let it be a cohesive Career Planning (with respect to Job-Profile,Industry,Function, Domain,Location,Level etc),so that you get credit for Value-Additions in your previous assignments
2)While it is quite possible you might have to start your career,not of your choice,having made a beginning let the subsequent moves be part of an overall Career Planning strategy.
3)When you start making the Planned Career moves,Let it be ideally in a field relevant to your Education,in a growing field with future prospects-Domestically&Internationally and having many subsidiary options,so that you are not straight jacketed or gasping for breadth,in the name of career planning.
4)Ideally if you have planned your Education itself well,either something passionate to you/you have already started showing promise,or an area with scope for Long-Term Career etc then your career planning would have started in right earnest at that time itself,giving you the Leverage of a Longer planned Career.You could make use of quality assessments available to match your interest/skill sets to match promising Career options
5)Now that you have a focus on atleast a larger canvas(If not very specific),all your Energy,Efforts,Learnings etc should be focussed on that without any dissipation&unnecessary diversions,even to the extent of what you watch in TV,YOUTUBE ,what you read by way of Books etc, barring your requirement of Entertainment /Diversions/Family time etc
6)Ensure that you plan your major part of your Net-working,Professional interactions,Presentations,Article Contributions,Blogs,YOUTUBE Videos etc clearly synchoranised with your career planning.This is apart from any Hobbies etc one might have,Even in case of Hobbies, if you are able to identify one which can Leverage on your Career,it can Take-off faster.Not mandatory but a possibility.
7)Now a days(Unlike yesteryears),you have a phenomenal variety of relevant short/medium/long-term courses(Both off-line&Online),Training programs,Mentoring,coaching options etc to strengthen all areas requiring improvements with much less stress&strain,to Fast-Track your career.Your having a Career Planning,helps you in a very big way ,while deciding on Courses,Training etc
8) With the advent&Giant strides Digital /Online Platform has taken ,you have the flexibility of time,location
etc for learning&Upgrading yourself on an ongoing basis,we should vociferously shout "THE WORD EXCUSES" is dead&gone from our Life.
9)At any point of time you are forced to take a break in your career,in view of your clarity in your Career Planning,you will be able to add value to your profile even during those times&thus significantly enhancing chances of your Faster&Better Re-employment.
10)Always plan your Learning ,Upgradation efforts wearing the next level shoes,as that is where you want to be.Also always put yourself in the likely assessor's shoe to understand what is expected from you so that you are rightly&adequately prepared,at the right time.
