Higher Education CoP: Finding your Path: An Exercise in Skillset Exploration (Virtual) (Project Management Institute: North Carolina)
This event will help participants review and reflect on their personal and professional skill sets. Upon completion of the workshop, participants will have a better understanding of their personal strengths and be able to compare them with the basic skills needed to enjoy and excel in the project management profession.
Participants will be separated into small discussion groups. Each individual will be asked to utilize the STAR method to share a real-life experience in which they were able to exercise problem-solving skills to resolve an issue. Group members, guided by a moderator, will then engage with the narrator to ask questions and evaluate the skills, passions, and values reflected in the narrator’s experience.
At the conclusion of the workshop, each participant will have an external assessment from other professionals regarding individual strengths, which can be used for career exploration or career advancement purposes.
