Managing your career journey: How to build a career development plan

The beginning of a new year is an exciting time and a great opportunity to take a step back and reflect on your career journey. A great tool to capture your reflections and close any associated gaps is a Career Development Plan (CDP). CDP is your personalised strategy which you define and use to achieve your career goals. It outlines skills and actions necessary to progress a career over a specific period.
