Our Career Management Model

This three-part model sits at the centre of our career management programmes. Our tools and frameworks have been adapted from social mobility theory to enable you to explore and understand your career in depth, as well as to practically apply your learnings to plan for your future. This process provides a space to discuss common challenges, employer expectations and the diversity of options available. This is a stimulating, step-by-step career management process which enables powerful results.

Explore

The data-gathering stage 


Our first step is to create an interruption. By using models, tools and collaborations with others we map your career options, expanding the breadth and depth of possibilities open to you and increase your awareness of these options. 

Understand

The analysis stage 


In this stage we help you to create a lens through which you can start to understand your needs and values, as well as those of the employers or clients within your desired career areas. 

Plan

This is the recommendation stage 


Using the clarity which the analysis stage has brought, you will be able to define your priorities, make more informed choices and use our models to devise a practical career management strategy.
