 Personal Balance Sheet, a Practical Career Planning Guide
by Randall Craig, HBA, MBA, CFA
In a January 2007 Member e-Survey, 48% of respondents indicated that they have a specific position they would like to achieve, but only 16% have a written plan of how to achieve it and 24% have no plan at all. 60% of respondents indicated that they would be interested in a career planning guide to assist them in meeting their career goals. Personal Balance Sheet, a Practical Career Planning Guide was published in June 2007 and can be helpful in developing a plan to realistically define and achieve career goals. This book is designed for those who are looking to excel in their careers and have work life balance too. In addition, the book provides practical guidance on Networking, Personal Branding and Interview styles, along with all 10 Career Planning and Life Balance Frameworks. The Author of this guide, Randall Craig, has founded successful start-ups, held a long-time position at a big four firm, and was an executive at a public company. In the introduction to his book, Randall notes: Forty years, 10,000 days, 80,000 hours. Measure it any way you like, but this is about the length of a typical career. With so much life spent working, why not spend some time planning your career in an organized, strategic manner? |
- Are you a bit fuzzy on your career goals?
- Is your work-life balance not under control?
- Have you achieved some career success and are considering change – but to what?
- Do you feel unsure about networking – and why it matters?
- Are you uncomfortable discussing career issues with your manager?
