Try out this exercise to help you identify your values. It will support the self-assessment part of our career management framework.

Your values are unique to you and your guiding principles. They give you purpose in both work and your personal life. Understanding your values can help you to:

  • set clear goals for the future which are worthwhile and have value

  • improve the quality of your decisions

  • provide some back-up support for you in those times when you feel confused or when you’re in a period of transition

Values can be used as a reference point for those job role(s) you are interested in working in.
