Why Most Career Development Plans Don’t Work

Описание: If you’ve been setting the same career goals every year — but nothing seems to change — this video will show you a better way to define career goals that actually move you forward. ✨ If you’re ready to grow into the version of you that speaks up, leads calmly, and gets recognized—start here https://workwithjosephine.com/linksyt for the FREE Be Seen workbook + clarity call + coaching details.

In this video, I walk you through a proven career development framework called The Six Box Method, a tool organizations use with high-potential employees to help them move from their current role to the next level.
Instead of vague goals like “be more strategic” or “get promoted”, this method helps you clearly define:
Your current vs future career state
The mindset shifts required to grow
The specific actions that signal readiness for the next level
The gaps that should inform your career development plan

This is especially powerful if you’re a quiet and introverted leader, or high performer who knows you’re capable of more — but struggles to articulate your goals in career development conversations.

🎯 In This Video, You’ll Learn:
Why traditional career goal setting often fails
How to use the Six Box Method to define career goals clearly
The difference between role-based and competency-based career goals
How to align mindset and actions with your next-level role
How to prepare for effective career development conversations with your manager

📈 Who This Is For:
Professionals aiming for promotion or leadership roles
High performers labeled as “reliable” but not yet “strategic”
Introverted or quiet leaders navigating corporate environments
Coaching clients who want a clear, actionable career growth framework

In the next video, we’ll break down how to:

I'm Josephine Ho, a career and leadership coach helping quiet, high-performing professionals to grow their careers by finding their authentic leadership presence. After 20 years in HR and talent management, I’ve watched too many talented people get overlooked, not for lack of skill, but because their work stayed hidden. My job is to change that — with mindset, communication, and career strategy that actually moves you forward.
