Since
1983, organizations across the nation, in every industry as well
as in government agencies have been using The
Career Challenge to teach their employees to manage
their own careers. The program is now one of the most well-respected
and widely used career workshops in the country.
Employees
begin by developing a comprehensive career self-assessment. Then
they attend a two-day workshop delivered by our professional trainers (or
yours, whom we have trained and licensed). Through lecture,
exercises in small groups and pairs, and a 278-page workbook, participants
leave with:
- A
comprehensive assessment of their work style, career type, career
anchor, values and needs, functional and adaptive skills, internal
barriers (including attitudes and behaviors), and developmental
needs.
- An
overview of the organization and its future; the critical skills
that will be needed; how to expand their contribution consistent
with the needs of the organization.
- An
analysis of their current work environment including relationships
with people, the specific jobs they do, the physical environment,
and the culture of the organization.
- A
set of development opportunities and realistic targets for the
job they are in as well as for their future with the company.
- The
ability and motivation to communicate with their managers about
their own development and careers.
- Improved
ability to present themselves more effectively in regard to their
careers.
- A
personal development plan including targets, action steps, schedules,
resources required, and barriers expected. The plan covers both
their current position and their future.
- Increased
personal and professional flexibility.
- A
new commitment to their own development, to their careers, and
to expanding their contribution to the organization.
The
Career Challenge gives employees the skills and
motivation they need to take responsibility for their own career
development.
