Discover Personal Brand

Taylor starting by discovering his personal brand is ideal!

To discover his personal brand, Taylor should reflect on his experiences and capabilities and understand his personal interests, motivations, and values and how they may drive his career aspirations of moving into a management position in the supply chain job family.

Key Considerations

Taylor’s career planning conversation should occur at the start of a fiscal year to align with his performance year but can continue and evolve throughout the year. Taylor and his people leader should revisit the conversation periodically to ensure that his development planning aligns with his long-term career plans.

Steps

  • Complete a Career Planning Reflection Guide (find this guide here), which will help Taylor to identify his strengths, experiences, values, and motivators to realize his career aspirations of moving into a management position in supply chain. It might look like this:
  • Solicit feedback.
  • Start a career planning conversation with his people leader by sharing his responses to the Career Planning Reflection Guide.


What stage in the career planning process is next for Taylor?
