31 | Identifying & Developing Your Transferable Skills
Are you feeling stuck because you aren't sure how your skills will transfer to your next career? I get it, when I left the arts I had to really work to put together a story of my main skills and how they applied to a job in the corporate world. But guess what, they totally did. And yours do as well!
In this week's episode I give you three challenges and exercises on how to get unstuck! 1) Identify the skills you enjoy using and are your strengths 2) Find new ways to demonstrate those skills and 3) Grow those skills through any additional training or coaching.
Easy peasy :) Seriously, I walk you through it all, take a listen! And I'm here to help if you want to connect! I also wrote a blog post a few weeks ago that ties to this if you want to get some additional tips! https://www.karendweeks.com/blog/
I am even leading a free virtual workshop this Thursday on how to talk to your manager about your career development. You can register here! https://www.eventbrite.com/e/141224619639
