The Career Retro is your opportunity to pause and reflect.
It's about diving into your professional story—celebrating the achievements, acknowledging the challenges, and spotting the patterns that have guided you to this point.
By exploring your past experiences, you'll uncover insights into what truly motivates you, what drains your energy, and where you genuinely want to go next. It's all about connecting the dots of your unique journey so you can take the lead in shaping your future with clarity and purpose.
Here's how it works:
1. Create Your Model
Use the chart as shown in the image.
Get as creative as you like!
Sketch it out by hand, use a digital tool, or simply jot down your thoughts (or download the template here).
The aim is to map out your career over the past 10 years (or more if you want!).
Consider job changes, project involvements, salary adjustments, and any other significant milestones.
2. Reflect Deeply
Look at your model and think about:
What Worked: Identify the moves and decisions that positively impacted your career.
What Didn't: Acknowledge the challenges or missteps and what you learned from them.
Potential Blockers: Be honest about any obstacles that may have hindered your progress. This could even be personal traits or habits.
ONCE YOU’VE DONE IT, SAVE IT TO YOUR ME 1.0 FOLDER! (make sure to name it clearly and date it)
