44. Does your career vision need an upgrade?
Description
How do you think about the vision for your career in an ever changing world?
When you are constantly evolving, conditions are ever changing and your ability to take action on your goals is sometimes compromised by the limitations of circumstances in our lives, how often do you step back to reassess?
Is your true expansive vision or your “rogue” limited vision (e.g., insecurity, fear, lack) running your career?
If you have a vision for your career, do you also have a vision for your leadership style and experience?
Do you even have a vision? Maybe you’ve just had your head down trying to learn, achieve financial security, make a name for yourself, get a good review, not lose your job, get promoted. But now that you’re feeling more secure and confident, you realise you haven’t had an explicit vision or purpose.
Today I explore the nuances and complexities with creating and sustaining an empowering but adaptable vision that can motivate you but grow and change with you as you evolve and mature in your career and leadership journey.
Topics discussed:
- I wonder what my late father’s vision was and how it needed to change from “revolutionary” to “nation builder” when Zimbabwe achieved independence while he was working abroad
- I invite you to think about whether your conscious vision or your rogue vision is running your life based on whether the direction you’ve been going in alights with what you actually want (a big one!)
- I explore the various changes and setbacks I’ve faced as I lived out my career and tested the feasibility, desirability, and applicability of my career vision until I finally found one that stuck (for now)
- I explore the importance of making your vision spiritually, mentally, emotionally and physically coherent so that it’s humane, truly aligned with your purpose, and holistically meaningful
