CareerRoadmap Module

This Module follows the Career Audit. Having already defined Point B in career progression, the focus then shifts to defining the target companies that are most likely to be able to offer the role or roles that are instrumental in achieving our client's career objectives.

We then move on to scope the set of tactical activities, including purposeful networking and possibly specific coaching recommendations, that form part of the client's Career Development Nodes, for implementation and follow up.

After the formal sessions, we look to touch base once a month to review progress in the implementation of the client's agreed strategy. We will also be looking to make introductions, to search consultants and other important career gateways and stakeholders, as appropriate in the implementation of a client's career roadmap.

An example of how to deploy the "The Thee Criteria" and "The God Question"
in defining career aspiration and articulating a search strategy
down to specifying companies to target.

The contents of a CareerRoadmap Report will include:

Getting to Point B - identification of target companies likely to be able to be to offer the roles that will be instrumental to achieving career objectives. This list of companies, together with identified areas of personal or leadership development, will form the basis of a career roadmap.
