Week 5

Prior to beginning work on this assignment, read Chapters 11 and 12 from the textbook, The Real-Life MBA: Your No-BS Guide to Winning the Game, Building a Team, and Growing Your Career.

Throughout your MBA program, you have had various discussion  questions and assignments related to career development. For example, in  a couple of courses you used StrengthsQuest to assess your own skills.  In other courses, you studied branding and networking, and viewed  LinkedIn to determine how MBA graduates are using their degrees. This  week, you will expand upon career development by assessing your own  future career paths.

Reflect on Chapter 11 in the course textbook, and apply the chapter  to your own life experiences by discussing your “area of destiny” (AOD).  What are you really good at, what do you love to do? Considering the  other topics covered in this chapter, and discuss what insights you  gained. Additionally, reflect on Chapter 12 from the course textbook.  Discuss how you have used or could use the six action steps to further  your career. Be sure to be specific in applying these concepts to your  own career path.

Your reflection should be a minimum of 700 words. Please submit your reflection to Waypoint for grading below.
