and @Comrade_Otoa host

There is a mindset change in several people that they are more than where they work. This is one of the reasons for the great resignation where people are leaving jobs bse their eyes are open to what they can achieve without being in a specific place or bound by time.
@TioKauma

Time is ripe for employers to change the work dynamics(improved EVPs) bse of the impact of the pandemic and the increasing Work From Home(WFH) and flexibility in hours.
Organisations that don't align risk losing talent to organisations that are applying or 2 do their own stuff.

@TioKauma introduces us to the E2VP - Employee Employer Value Proposition where both parties need to offer value to each other.
One aspect for the employee is the their values and what legacy they want to leave.
#360Mentor

One planning tool for career is a balanced wheel/pie to reflect different aspects of your career.
Meanwhile @TioKauma defines Career as pursuit of progressive achievements
#360Mentor

@TioKauma refers to 4 levels of competence -
4. Unconscious incompetence is the lowest where U don't know that U don't know.
3.Next level is conscious incompetence - Where U know & acknowledge that U don't know.
2.Conscious competence
1.Unconscious competence

@TioKauma encourages us to strive to be at level 3,remain curious and keep learning.

During your career, it is imperative to learn, unlearn and relearn. Famous phrase by Alvin Toffler.

Wheel of career broken down
1. Learning
2. Emotional well being
3. Physical well being
4. Relationships - be deliberate about your networks and how you manage them. There are some destiny makers in this group. U have to attract them & ensure that they have a +Ve view about U

4 Ctd. @TioKauma advises that by this time, one must have a list of people that they would like to meet in 2022 a bid to gain insights or learn from them.

5. Income - everyone needs income to survive. Plan for your income in 2022 and how you need to grow it.
#360Mentor

Wheel ctd:
6. Recreation/Spirituality/hobbies/renewal.
The pie that focuses on doing things that help U clear Ur mind. Manage them so that they have a positive impact on the other pies.

These pies impact U as a human being wholesomely so it's important to manage all.
#360Mentor

The @TioKauma wheel of career is broken into 6 pies/parts summarized below:
1. Knowledge and skills
2. Attitudes and emotions
3. Physical and mental health
4. Relationships and networks
5. Income
6. Recreation/Spirituality/Renewal
#360Mentor

A takeout from @TioKauma's work career life wheel is you must balance the pie in such a way that it doesn't feel like you are driving on a road with bumps and potholes.
Do not focus on one entirely at the cost of the other.
#360Mentor

@TioKauma says you need to deliberately build the emotional resilience (Grit)
Aspects of this are having self control ,being self aware and managing your mood.

#360Mentor

In addition, to keep growing in your career: have big hairy audacious goals and discipline.
Write down the goals!!!

@TioKauma

Big Hairy Audacious Goals is from the book "Built to Last: Successful Habits of Visionary Companies" by Jim Collins and Jerry Porras.

@TioKauma threw in a tip for CVS.
What is relevant is your skills, and your contribution in the areas that you worked.
PS: The titles do not matter because they vary per organization.
#360Mentor

Time to review those CVS and their layout as U plan yr career growth

#360Mentor

To negotiate a salary increment, lead with the things that you have done to justify your value and the opportunities you have created or seen that you can fit into which avail the opportunity for the increment.

@TioKauma

Dear Parents, a child's formative years have an impact on an individual's view of life.
We need to work on the negative impact that the formative years may have had by recalibrating and unlearning the stuff from the formative years & relearn what is more effective.
@TioKauma

On managing digital footprint: @TioKauma reminds us to be aware that it is a about a personal brand and how U present yourself to the public.
What you post on social media creates an impression and some employers review Social Media as they vet a candidate.
@TioKauma
#360Mentor

To support your career growth, prepare other people to be able 2 take on the tasks that U are doing.
@TioKauma brings up the concept of reverse mentoring where mentoring can be done by younger employees.
Develop bench strength to free U up to take on new challenges.
#360Mentor

@TioKauma,this is such a timely discussion as it fits right into career planning that some people do at this time of the year.
You have equipped those who may be challenged about career and stuff like CVS. Thank you very much & the hosts @rkabushenga& @Comrade_Otoa
