Fortunately there are many others who can offer you
support, guidance and encouragement in steering your career.
As a guide you could:
Speak to your supervisor – if you’re
seeking insights into developing in your current position or would value
their input into your strengths and development needs. They can help you
align your learning goals with corporate directions and alert you to
other opportunities that you may not be aware of.
Speak to your HR manager – when you would like information on
current ministry policies or development opportunities more broadly
across Government.
Speak to a career counselor – to help clarify your career
aspirations and access specialized career assessments that highlight
your key skills and abilities.
Speak with colleagues and peers – they may give you a fresh
perspective by relating their own career choices and decision points or
by building on your knowledge of yourself.
Speak with mentors - who can ask you probing questions about
best fits and act as a sounding board to explore ideas
Speak with family members – when you are considering major
decisions like moving. They can help you match your personal goals and
commitments with other activities in your life and provide perspective
on impacts |
