Developing Personal Career Potential   

People often find themselves in a job they can do, but not one that they enjoy. Research has shown, however, that if we enjoy the work we do, we will perform better and achieve greater success. That’s why applying for and securing the right role is so important. 

This course aims to help you understand and explore how you like to work and what types of roles and ways of working suit you best. This course will also give you the confidence and skills necessary for attending and succeeding in that all important job interview.  

To help you make the right personal career choices, the Margerison-McCann Team Management Profile may be employed. This is a highly respected psychometric profiling system that has been providing a framework for developing personal potential and energising teams for over 20 years.
