Purpose

A template that first helps identify the main goal(s) of an executive when considering their next move. Based on these goals, it helps define possible positions and companies as a next move. For each of these possible positions, the executive can assess how their current skills measure up against the identified skills required for each role. They can also determine whether they have the appropriate relationships in place to make meaningful connections to be considered for the position, or whether there are gaps that need to be addressed. For each possible position, the executive can identify specific actions that need to be taken to best position themselves as a candidate in the future for when that role becomes available.

How to use this tool
