Architecture

It is a decision every young person has to make: What should be my career objective? or What do I want to be one day?

• Do I want to become a professional practitioner such as a lawyer, medical doctor, engineer, accountant, veterinary surgeon, or do I want to be an entrepreneur and design my own business enterprise?
• Do I want to work as an employee receiving a salary (Do you prefer 'being led'?), or do I control my own career destiny?

Of course many professions such as police officers, soldiers, state prosecutors and judges, public school educators – to name a few – are obliged to work for employers, such as The State

Deciding on a future career path and specific occupation is a complicated and costly process that cannot be made on a day. Upon starting this process it should be understand that it is only the 1st step in the creation of an comprehensive occupation eco-system: The can be no doubt that functional career architecture requires planning over a period of 30 year period that has to start at early school age.

Career Architecture is directly or indirectly affected by Global factors such as the effect of (i) rapid technology development, in particular artificial intelligence, (ii) societal factors such as population growth and unemployment, as well as (iii) environmental issues such as waste, pollution and climate change that brings global warming.

Career Architecture are about ‘deciders’ and ‘criticals’

Two key ‘deciders’ are the following:

Heed this basic rule: You will be a successful (judge/medical practitioner/veterinarian/fighter pilot/police officer), not because you want to be, but because you are (= because of your genetic predisposition and born-with attributes).

When a Principal or 1st Career Choice becomes a doubtful option, do you have a 2nd choice? Example: Many young persons have a dream of becoming a judge/medical practitioner etc, and then, either while studying or working post qualification as professional practitioner, realize "This is not for me". In many cases access to professions is blocked due to practitioner saturation or developing client preferences.

The absolute key to career path architecture is the development of an ability to retrospectively predict the occupation-specific attributes you need to develop and track your career-related achievements to meet the challenges that await you during this 30-year journey.

'Criticals' include – inter alia – to self-architect your future occupation, keeping control over your ultimate destiny. Self-investment is an absolute success-factor.

The foundation of such a process is to design, develop and manage prediction anchor-points that will serve as the steps of your ladder to success.
