Hire Ground, Wed, Aug 7, 15:30 - Wed, Aug 7, 16:20 CDT
Employees, especially those earlier in their career, often expect managers to provide a plan for career growth. Experienced managers know this effort needs to be collaborative or it will likely fall flat.
Employees that take an active role in this process will have more agency in shaping their career. This talk is geared towards individual contributors (ICs), but still applicable to people managers.
We’ll demonstrate how to translate your company’s ladder into the skeleton of a Career Development Plan (CDP). A custom CDP is a powerful tool that can help you during promotions and makes filling out self-reviews a breeze. It’s also a durable document that will help protect you from career setbacks when you switch teams, your manager leaves, or when you change companies.
Another aspect of shaping your career is being comfortable talking about your accomplishments. We’ll briefly cover how to make your work visible to others.
This combined with a CDP helps you achieve whatever’s next. This could be Senior to Staff AppSecEng, IC to manager, or changing disciplines from CloudSec to CorpSec.
The most consistent person in your career is you, make sure you are recognized for your work.
