Content

Focus on developing your expertise.
Example: If you are an advanced trainer in human rights and conflict transformation, you could focus on further building your expertise around this and focus on developing the competence area ‘Being Civically Engaged’.
﻿
Focus on developing the areas you need to improve.
Example: If you notice from your 360 degree feedback that you have a lack of active listening or integrating learning with digital tools, pick up on those and use them as goals for development.
﻿
Focus on the essentials.
Example: If you are starting as a trainer, you could invest your time developing the foundations of facilitation – how to realise experiential learning, how to plan a learning activity, how to manage the group process, how to conduct needs assessment and evaluation of the learning.
﻿
Find your focus.
If none of the above focus tips fit you, try to customise and discover a strategy that will work for you. Maybe look at the areas you take for granted, the competence areas you find difficult to answer or assess for yourself or respond to the feedback others regularly give you.
﻿
How do you plan realistically?
Choose 1 indicator as a goal to achieve within a specific time frame. Give it a try to see how it works for you.
Choose 3 to 5 indicators as goals and make a long-term plan.
Customise and work with a system that works for you.
