Create a Career Development Plan from Where You Sit

In this latest post from Psychology Today, Wake Forest AVP of Mentoring and Alumni Personal & Career Development Allison McWilliams (’95) explores how to own your career path by knowing your “why”, identifying any skill gaps, and putting a plan in place to move forward in your career.

“You must recognize that your career path is yours, alone, and no one is ever going to care about it quite as much as you do (nor should they). Gather the data that you need, take intentional steps to fill your gaps, reflect on your why, invite others into your journey, and move forward with confidence and clarity.”
