I walked into a clinic one day and the Doctor and I got chatting. He asked me what I do and as I was sharing, he had this puzzled look on his face. When I finished he said: "I observed you used the word "LOVE" your job. I have never heard anyone say they LOVE their job". Turns out I throw the L-word out a lot when referring to what I do. Someone once asked me if career fulfilment is truly possible. Resounding YES!!! 🔊 Here's a powerful Foundational Tool I used and recommend to my clients in their career building process. VALUES ALIGNMENT. I believe strongly a career that aligns with your values is not just a job—it's a source of genuine satisfaction and fulfillment. Who doesn't want that? So here's few things you can do to ensure your career aligns with your values: 🔴 Reflect on Your Values: Take a moment to identify your core values. What principles guide your decisions, and what matters most to you in work and life? 🔵 Evaluate Your Current & Future Roles: Assess how well the roles aligns with your values. What aspects bring you joy and fulfillment, and where do you feel a misalignment? Where are you willing to compromise and what is an absolute? ⚫ Define Your Professional Priorities: Clearly articulate your career priorities. Is it work-life balance, social impact, innovation, or a collaborative work environment? I tell people, income as a priority is okay too, as long as it is not the only thing. 🔴 Explore Industries and Companies: Research industries and companies that prioritize values similar to yours. Look for organizational cultures that resonate with your beliefs. There are company these days who are more about purpose than income. Government institutions have been primarily it for me. 🔵 Network with Like-Minded Professionals: Connect with professionals who share similar values. Their experiences can provide insights into aligning values with career choices. ⚫ Seek Opportunities for Impact: Identify roles or projects where you can make a meaningful impact aligned with your values. This could be through volunteer work, special projects, or leadership initiatives.

Showcase how your principles align with the mission and values of potential employers. Like you, they want individuals with aligned values. 🔵 Continuously Reassess: Regularly reassess your career alignment with your values. As you grow, your values may evolve, and it's okay to recalibrate your professional path accordingly. Crux of the matter? Embrace the journey of building a career that reflects the best version of you. 🚀 Like/comment/share if this post resonates with you.

What is your expectation for pay? Before you go into an interview, do research on how much typical roles pay. Factor in your industry, field and of course tour experience. Go into interviews prepared to answer this question. PS: even if the job posts a range, feel free to carve your range within that range if you, especially if you believe your worth above the lower end advertised. #salaryexpectations #interviews #interviewtips
