Key terms
- Career project. A project that is undertaken in order to land suitable employment or, at least, to get closer to its landing.
- Project. One or more enterprise efforts undertaken to create a unique deliverable, functional features of which are identified or can be identified before the efforts start. Any project can be viewed as a set of processes.
Script
- A career endeavor is an undertaking to implement the career strategy. Career strategies aim to achieve their career goals.
- Reflecting the Work Motivation Model, these goals may refer to improvements in work-life fit, employee compensation, job tasks, or, most likely, some combination of those.
- These endeavors may be either career operations, which are casually called "old businesses", or career projects, which are casually called "new businesses". Keeping the current job and continuing skills-building volunteering are examples of career operations. Developing new competence, attaining a mentor, building one's employability, and quitting the current job would be examples of career projects.
- Any endeavor consists of one or more processes. A process is a sequence of activities undertaken in order to achieve particular results. Does it sound complicated? If you need to create an idea of a solution, your time would be an input, all collected available information, as well as your decision-making skills would be your assets, legal and ethical considerations can be your factors, and an idea would be your output.
- Ongoing operations are made up of repetitive processes. Projects may include some ad-hoc activities.
- Project deliverables are unique and, in most cases, unpredictable. Projects are undertaken to solve some problems. Projects start with identifying the problem, then designing a solution, and then developing the designed solution.
- Some operations may support projects. For instance, continuing allocating time for putting one's foot in doors of promising employers is an example of career operations. While putting one's foot in doors of promising employers are examples of career projects. Those operations that support development projects are called DevOps.
Career Waterfalls is the successor lectio.
