This mindset will be your best ally during this journey, but can potentially be your best ally for the next months and the next years, while you keep designing and crafting your Career.

The 5 principles of the “Career Designer” Mindset

Below are the 5 key principles of the “Career Designer” Mindset, that I recommend you start embracing and practicing, as you go:

Principle #1:

Frame your Dream Career as an alliance of 3 attributes: Potential, Purpose and Quality of Living (based on your desired Life-Style).

By Potential, we mean our talents, skills, and passions, put into practice intentionally.

By Purpose, we mean working on things that add value to something we believe in, projects aligned with our values, we mean working with a sense of contribution.

Quality of Living (based on your desired Life-Style) refers to how and where we want to live, how and how much we want to work, prioritising our health, which is our greatest asset.

Good career decisions will always take this alliance into account. This allows us to build prosperity in a sustainable way.

Principle #2:

Stepping into the Protagonist role of your Career.

What does it mean?

• It means defining and owning your career aspirations and needs first, before anyone sets them for you
• It means properly communicating your career aspirations and needs to whoever has a supporter or enabler role for your growth
• It means standing tall to your strengths and to your true potential
• It means developing new capabilities and new skills in autonomy, with pro-activeness, rather than waiting for them to be needed, or requested
• It means opening doors to yourself, rather than waiting to have someone opening them for you
