Semin Nurse Manag. 1997 Mar;5(1):56-60.

Abstract

In today's changing environment, managing your career may seem very difficult and even frightening. However, the old rules for achieving career and life goals still ring true. The processes are to identify your priorities and to set goals that give you drive and direction. The next steps include analyzing your goals and determining the feasibility of achieving them, considering the external influences and personal and developmental requirements. Completing this process enables you to see clearly what is needed to establish a career plan and to determine what experience and education are needed to realize those goals. Suggestions for how to do this, considering the trends in health care, are discussed.
