Career Management: Personal Career Development Growth Plan

This assignment presents a personal career development growth plan aimed at shaping the student's persona as a business consultant. It emphasizes the importance of aligning career choices with personal skills and aspirations, drawing on concepts from Kanter's expert and entrepreneurial career models. The plan focuses on enhancing communication, interpersonal skills, and problem-solving abilities. The student sets SMART objectives to achieve professional aspirations and leverages the idea of 'weak ties' to facilitate early employment and career settlement. The plan includes key result areas, indicators of success, and status reports to track progress in areas such as business consulting, finance, and HR. References to relevant literature support the development plan.

When I consider all of the assignments done before, I can state for me that the expert and
entrepreneurial career which has been depicted by Kanter, is the most reasonable option for me
to actually shape my persona The individual profession advancement development design will
incorporate this piece of learning through associates and along these lines a ton of me being
included as a key asset will be excessively useful for me. Additionally, for my improvement, I
will ensure that I keep my trademark and USP of “Excellence Is My Foundation" as my field
information of business counseling. (Inkson, 2014). I need to really ensure that I develop as a
business advisor and subsequently I develop myself as a person with the correct aptitude. It is
where we live, the work we have done, the degrees we have and thus, my family background
even affects the choice of job. This analysis requires a proper development plan and that can be
on the reflective practice which allows me as a student to understand how development plans can
be made using concepts. (Bubnys & Zavadskienė, 2017).
As a student who is settling my career path and college, I trust that I can set clear
vocation objectives that can control me in accomplishing my professional aspirations. I found
that not every person accomplishes the proposed profession yearning since a few people have
worked in one position for their whole careers. With SMART objectives, I trust I can exceed
expectations to the most noteworthy echelons in my field to end up a standout amongst the best
individuals and accomplish the most elevated purpose of realization.
Expanding on the professional decision and model proposed by Granovetter's idea of 'the
quality of weak ties', I look at the results of the vocation counsel by feeble ties verses by solid
ties. The key outcome is that accepting assistance from the strong and weak ties is associated

with early employment and vocation settlement. Then again, the stronger binds are probably
going to prompt assertiveness. I also discovered individual help, good example and expert
companions are the solid elements and partners' business advancement is a very strong factor.
(Carolan, 2005).
