New rules of career management-5 actions to move your career in fifth gear


Have you noticed that colleagues and friends seem to enjoy greater career success than that lately? Are you wondering how you can get your career on track? Don't worry, help is at hand. Here are five actions you can take to get your career in fifth gear:

1. Get focused

If you're not sure what you want to achieve in your career, your first task is to focus on your vision of success. If you know what you want to achieve in the next 5 years in your career then it will be easier to plan the actions you need to take to achieve your career goals.

Do not create a goal that you think is acceptable for your friends and family. This is your life, your career. Create a vision of success that inspire you to stay the course of action.

2. Turn your vision into a plan

It's great to have a vision. But how do you ensure that non-vision remains only a dream?

The key is to ensure that translate the vision into a career objective that you document, review and refine over time. Plan should also include actions to be undertaken to develop your strengths and develop basic skills that will be required to demonstrate to the roles that you try to undertake in the future.

If you don't have specific goals you want to reach to support your successful career in the coming 12 months, taking time out to write your career goals today.

3. Recognize your strengths

Are clear about your core strengths-areas that are so naturally to you that you don't have to work on them – and the things they are passionate about, so that when they are engaged in these areas the only time flies?

Review your career history and consider those moments where not only you only had the fastest time in the work you were doing but there were also a great success. These were times when playing to your strengths? What were the other things that contributed to your success at that time?

As you complete this review, if your CV or resume is outdated, now would be a great time to revisit and up date.

Consider how it could change the role and responsibility in your current job to inject more of your strengths and the factors that support the success of the previous one.

4. express your personal brand

One of the reasons that your career can be in neutral or realize is that they have taken the time to define and to fully express your personal brand – in other words, how they are differentiated from the competition.

There may be many other people trying the same career path as you, but developing and nurture your personal brand that you're sure to stand out from the crowd.

5. Get known now

So it is often easy for us to be involved in the daily activities of our role that we spend some time inside and outside the organisation to link with others.

Now is the time to get visible and nurture your network-the biggest mistake that could do it is starting to grow your network until you are looking for your next role.

Create the plan of career networking so that you build your personal profile and reputation within your business, the local community and in your industry.
