- A career strategy is a high-level plan to achieve one or more career goals under conditions of uncertainty. No unified strategy exists; every strategy depends on what one's career goals are.
- Reflecting the Work Motivation Model, career goals may refer to better work-life fit, employee compensation, or job tasks.
- Every goal may require its own career tactic to achieve. So, the strategy can be referred as a composition of tactics.
- The BCG matrix is the leading tool that c-level executives use to formulate the strategy. With regard to career administration, this matrix may help in resource allocation decisions on the basis of the worker's competitiveness and goal attaining potential of various career endeavors. Strong business refers to high competitiveness and vice versa.
- The BCG matrix positions all the endeavors in one of four quadrants. The matrix creators called weak-business low-potentials dogs; they should be allowed going out. Strong-business low-potentials are cash cows; they should be kept. Weak-business high-potentials are question marks; they might be considered being moved to stars if stars are needed. Strong-business high-potentials are stars; they should be nourished.
Career Tactics is the successor lectio.
