About this book

Career development is no longer a case of climbing the corporate ladder

The world of work has changed dramatically in the last decade and so has our expectations. Changing jobs, roles, locations, sectors, and careers is becoming the new normal. Furthermore, the shift to remote working due to the COVID-19 pandemic has dramatically altered the working world and for many, has led to reflection and a desire for a career change.

This book will help you:

  • Set career development objectives;
  • Recognise your achievements to date;
  • Build upon your strengths; and
  • Identify personal and professional development opportunities.

The book includes exercises and activities to help you understand what is important to you in a job and how to attain your career goals

The author outlines the role of mentoring in career development, how to build your personal brand, present yourself professionally online and in person, and find the resources you need to achieve your development goals. The book also provides a practical example of a career development path in the cyber security sector.
