Douglas E. Welch (http://douglasewelch.com) presents to the class Career Development – Theories and Techniques at Pepperdine Graduate School of Education & Psychology taught by fellow CareerCamp Co-Chair, Danielle Gruen
The two biggest challenges are deciding what you want to do as a career and then building the career you deserve once you decide.
I discuss the Career Compass method of discovering your career wants, needs and desires and then using various social media tools to show people “What you do and how well you do it”
Transcript:
If you have to explain a concept to somebody else it makes it easier for you to remember and understand it, because if you start asking yourself questions — you’re trying to explain it to someone who knows nothing about it or is struggling with it — and you have to go, “Why is it that way? What– oh–hold on” and you have to figure it out and then you can explain it to them, but it very quickly exposes the limits of your knowledge and things and so you can’t help but learn things more deeply, apply them in a better and help those around you. So, I highly encourage you to take your thinking. Take your thoughts. Take your — the neat things that you do. Whether company-based or personal-based — it does not matter — and start talking about them online. Please because the big thing that’s going to do and everything else I’m going to talk about is going to do — it’s going to start attracting opportunities to you.
