關於成功職場轉型的建議
A recipe for a successful career transformation
當前許多職場新人，即使工作幾年之後仍然無法完美匹配工作內容和自我需求。他們有些人受制於經濟壓力、自我懷疑、準備不足，或是不匹配的職場體驗；另一些則是因爲企業中的「隱形天花板」和官僚制度、侷限的自身與職業成長機會而感到束手無策。普華永道於2011年發佈的「Millennials at Work」研究報告指出百分之五十的90後將個人成長和發展放在第一位，而非薪酬和待遇。
It is not uncommon for young professionals in their first few years to realize that their ‘job’ may not be answering what they need or desire. Some might be bogged down with financial burden, self-doubt, a sense of unpreparedness or misfit. Others might feel powerless because of corporate glass ceilings, bureaucracy, or limited personal and professional growth opportunities. In fact, PwC Millennials at Work showed that over 50% of millennials put growth and development first, before pay or benefits.
對於在職業發展十字路口搖擺不定的人，最大的苦惱來自於如何尋找到合適的職業以真正滿足他們對個人成長、學習進步和自我實現的需求。幸運的是，在這個充滿變化和機遇的世界中，職場轉型仍是職場受困的年輕人伸手能及的最佳出路。那麼如何才能成功做到職場轉型呢？
For those that find themselves at such a crossroad, finding a ‘career’ that satisfies their need for growth, learning and self-fulfilment may seem just out of their reach. Fortunately, in a world of endless change and possibilities, career transformation is an option within reach of most.
職場轉型關乎一個人對自我認知的轉變和個人潛能的釋放，更決定一個人對自己未來的主導。爲了避免轉型當中徒勞無功，需要投入大量時間和努力來制定個性化的發展計劃，更需要從他人處獲取指導和建議。有了完善的準備，任何人都有機會打破「隱形的天花板」，脫離職業不匹配的困境，跨越職業技能缺失的鴻溝。
With the right preparation, anyone can break or circumvent glass ceilings, value mismatch and skill gaps. Career transformation is about realizing a personal vision of change, unleashing potential and taking ownership of one’s future. With such high stakes, it is worth putting the time and effort to plan out a personal development strategy, integrating guidance and advice from others.
職業轉型需要從清晰的自我認知開始。自我認知要求對比自身技能程度，同時要求鼓起勇氣來內省自己，找出內心焦慮和動力的來源 。自我認知是建立自身價值的核心，也是架構深刻職業規劃的基石。
Career transformation strategy starts from a deep understanding of the self. This is as much about skills benchmarking as it is about holding up a mirror and building the courage to explore sources of anxiety and drivers of energy. This self-finding journey is at the core of developing a personal purpose and vision and the foundation of establishing a meaningful career.
自我轉型的過程中，需要認真審視並充分理解現有的機會。這意味著去了解不同行業、不同職能、和職業發展途徑。同時，也意味著去理解當下全球範圍內所經歷的變革和大趨勢，以及這些趨勢所引領的未來。透過這樣的自我審視和外部觀察，便有望進一步探索出與自身相符且可行的職業規劃。
An important stop in this journey is scoping options and developing a good understanding of the opportunities that are available. This means learning about different industries, functions and career paths. It is also about understanding current megatrends that govern the present world, and the future they may bring. Equipped with external and internal perspectives, exploring fit and creating an ideal career path might get closer in view.
自我轉型中同樣重要的是採取實際行動，去獲取必要技能將自身特長與市場需求相匹配，如專業技能，或是領導力等軟實力，抑或是兩者兼具。當然，年輕人如果不能對自身、外在環境具備清晰認識，則可能在採取行動的過程中事倍功半，無法在戰略層面上拓展自我實力並提升職場競爭力。
Equally important is to take action and obtain needed skills to bridge the gap between where a person is and the future one desires. These can be technical skills or leadership skills or both. Doing this on the back of a good understanding of self and the environment will spare ambitious career seekers the time and effort wasted in taking on courses and learning that don’t strategically enhance their career or satisfies their development time.
閉門造車無法幫助成功轉型。所以積極展示進步成果，主動認識他人，宣傳自身技能，挑戰自我極限異常重要。商業領域的社交技能是一項不容忽視的技巧，優良的商務社交技巧能在無形中帶來更多機會，而這一技巧的缺失也可能意味著與機遇失之交臂。具備這一技巧之後，你需要將社交建立在一個能夠聚賢納才的優質平臺上，以最優化你的社交價值。
No career can be transformed in isolation; without meeting people, promoting capabilities, pushing the limits and putting oneself ‘out there’. Networking is a skill that requires as much as attention as any other, and often, can make it or break an opportunity. It is most beneficial when done smartly, on platforms that bring relevant influential people closer together.
職場轉型的過程就如同人生的轉型，兩者都需要投入大量時間和精力。然而，一旦你能掌握其中訣竅，則將受益無窮、事半功倍。
Starting a career transformation journey is synonymous with life transformation, and it takes a significant time investment, yet, when done strategically, it is extremely satisfying.
