When constructing your action plan, there are four main dimensions to consider in order for it to be as comprehensive as possible.

Information

• What extra information do you need before you can make a decision?
• What areas do you feel unsure about?
• What knowledge might give you the edge when you are applying for other jobs?

People (or possibly an organisation/agency)

• Who might help you with information about opportunities with your current employer?
• Who do you need to talk to or consult in order to find out more about career ideas or training opportunities?
• Who might be able to offer you impartial advice or guidance?

Experience

• What skills or expertise do you need to develop before you can make a particular move?
• What experience will make you more attractive to a future employer?

Timescale

• Are there some tasks that need to be completed before others can be tackled?
• Are there any deadlines that you must meet in order to progress?
• What are realistic time frames within which you can achieve your objectives?
