Feeling stuck and unfit for the traditional path?

Have you ever been told if you focused on only one thing, you’d be extremely good at it?

But what if you have multiple interests and can handle each one because that’s how your brain works?

What if you can switch careers multiple times and find a way to integrate your passion all in one? 

What if you’re secretly a multi-potentialite?

And you’re just waiting to unleash your superpowers?

Wait no more!

You can start building a happy and meaningful experience through a portfolio career. 

You’ll no longer be stuck doing the same thing over and over throughout the traditional path.

You’ll find a variety in your day-to-day work.

You can hone skills in your own time and pace. 

No more sacrificing of values and personal happiness to climb ranks.

This time, you’ll hone a lily-pad mindset*.

You’ll make a “series of interconnected leaps”. 

And become so damn good at building a portfolio skillset

That AI can’t easily replace. 

*From The Quarter-life Breakthrough by Adam Smiley Poswolsky

What is a portfolio career?

“Your portfolio is created by you, rather than determined for you by someone else (like a bunch of hiring managers). It reflects your professional identity and potential. It includes your unique combination of skills, experiences, and talents that can be mixed, matched, and blended in different ways.”

“Over time, the value of your portfolio will increase by your ability to cross-pollinate: To combine and weave together skills from your different experiences in order to gain new insights, tackle new problems, diversify income sources, and serve in new ways.”

– Rinne, April. Why You Should Build a “Career Portfolio” (Not a “Career Path”). Harvard Business Review. 21 October 2024.

Unlock the ultimate strategy to portfolio career success

In this webinar, I will share the story of how I built a portfolio of experiences and skills through my audit journey in the Philippines, Singapore, and Belgium. A few highlights include the time:

  • I experienced my first burn-out from working on audits
  • How my first mobility assignment and international experience in Singapore brought disappointments, but also many AHA moments
  • My delayed career move from the Philippines to Belgium during the pandemic
  • How I switched from audit to learning and development
  • How I ended up facilitating a session with other young professionals in front of audit quality leaders from the global network
 

I will also share some insights that will enable you to: 

  • Define what is a portfolio career 
  • Identify the different subsets of a portfolio career
  • Define a lateral move which is one subset of a portfolio career 
  • Identify the different types of lateral move
  • Define the 3P strategy to make a successful lateral move
