Building a Sustainable Career Growth Plan

Career growth is intentional. Start by defining a 1-year and 3-year plan with specific skills, responsibilities, and measurable milestones. Share goals with a mentor or manager and revisit them quarterly.

Map skill gaps

Identify the competencies required for your next role. Combine on-the-job projects with structured learning—courses, certifications, and stretch assignments—to close gaps efficiently.

Seek feedback and visibility

Schedule regular feedback conversations and proactively communicate progress. Volunteering for cross-functional projects raises your profile and builds a broader skill set.
