SWOT ANALYSIS-Its impact on career planning Printable Version PRINTABLE VERSION
by Joe, Kenya Oct 25, 2004
Globalization   Opinions

  

After you've analyzed your strengths, weaknesses, threats, and opportunities, you should use that information to plan how to market yourself.
The marketing planning process entails a three-step process:
1. Determining objectives.
2. Developing marketing strategies.
3. Strategizing an action program.
Objectives—define your career objectives. What is your ideal job upon graduation (or the job you would like to transition to from your current job)? What are some other positions you could accept? What is your five-year career goal?
Marketing Strategies—a broad marketing strategy or “game plan” for attaining your objectives. What are the companies and organizations you’re going to target to obtain your objectives—your ideal job? How will you communicate with these firms? The strategies you identify should utilize all of the resources available to you, such as your personal network and a partnership with a mentor.
Action Programs—according to marketing principles, marketing strategies should be turned into specific action programs that answer a number of questions, including: What will be done? When will it be done? Who is responsible for doing it? Your key task here is setting specific timetables and deadlines for getting the career and company information you identified in the marketing strategy step.

Cool article. I've learnt to use the SWOT analysis in Community Development. This puts a different slant on it. Thanks!
