Development Hacks: personal development

This is the first episode in our mini-series to give listeners tips and ideas for how people can best develop themselves.  A key point is about personal responsibility – it’s down to you to guide your career.   Also, we discuss the importance of understanding your strengths and building on them.  What gives you energy, and what does your best or favourite day look like? Finally, keep your learning fresh.  It’s not (just) about “going on a course”.  There are so many other ways to develop yourself, building the broader skill sets to set you up to succeed in the long-term. Actions:·       Jot down what your favourite project from the last 12 months has been.  What does this tell you about what you enjoy, and your strengths?      Ask a friend – what did they try recently from which they learnt the most?
