Progress Over Perfection Coaching is a podcast focused on career management and development by offering insight on how to build an intentionally balanced and purpose-filled career.It's that time of year - as the holidays roll around and fiscal years typically come to a close, so too does the performance evaluation cycle. So, in this episode I cover a subject that may be very top of mind for a lot of you - year end evaluations and ratings - how to approach them, what they are and what they can mean for you.Today, we are talking about year end evaluations and ratings. This post is kind of backwards - I meant to do a Development Plan post at the beginning of this year - we will get to that, but will start with the end of a cycle, first!This will be part of a three part series around the development plan cycle - starting here, then an episode on giving, receiving and actioning feedback, and finally, wrapping up with an episode on building a development plan for the year ahead.-----------------------------------------------------------------------Revisit the Harada Method, from Episode 6: https://rss.com/podcasts/prgscoach/676640/Check out FREE resources, like a blank 64-Window Chart: https://app.delenta.com/my/@prgscoach/course/free-ikigai-career-resources-----------------------------------------------------------------------More information about Progress Over Perfection Coaching can be found at:https://prgscoach.com/https://app.delenta.com/ta/@prgscoachhttps://www.linkedin.com/company/progress-over-perfection-coaching/-----------------------------------------------------------------------Intro and Outro music:Music: Right Ways [Original Mix] by Imperss is licensed under a Creative Commons License. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/...

Progress Over Perfection Coaching is a podcast focused on career management and development by offering insight on how to build an intentionally balanced and purpose-filled career.Today, we're talking about third party professional certifications - that's a mouthful, so from here on out, I'll just be calling them certifications. I'll start with what they are, how you can identify if they might be right for you, talk about a few well-known ones that I've had experience with as examples, go through the process and time and cost implications and how they can be put to use in your career journey. Throughout all of this, I'll also try to take a minute at each of these topics to talk about how you might be able to evaluate IF they could be something that could be useful for your career - there won't be a right answer, and that can change over time. But, like with the all things about your career, your changing perspective should not be seen as something negative - you will change, and so will what you want out of your career and how you want to go about achieving it. With that, lets talk certifications!-----------------------------------------------------------------------Past episodes referenced:Internal Drivers of Ikigai: https://rss.com/podcasts/prgscoach/615969/-----------------------------------------------------------------------More information about Progress Over Perfection Coaching can be found at:https://prgscoach.com/https://app.delenta.com/ta/@prgscoachhttps://www.linkedin.com/company/progress-over-perfection-coaching/-----------------------------------------------------------------------Intro and Outro music:Music: Right Ways [Original Mix] by Imperss is licensed under a Creative Commons License. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/...Support by RFM - NCM: https://bit.ly/3po6gnm
