Can you develop your skills for your next job – even your dream job – while still in your current role? Yes. You can, and you should. Halelly will show you how in today’s Ask Halelly episode.

Here’s another Ask Halelly episode of the TalentGrow Show, where Halelly answers a question from a listener, a member of the audience at one of her conference speaking events, a learner in one of her corporate workshops, or a member of the media.

First, Halelly reminds you that you own your development, and encourages you to be proactive in developing the skills you need for your next job. Then, she shares five broadly useful transferable skills to focus on plus suggests specific, non-training, low-budget ideas for how you to grow them, while still in your current role. And even without any involvement from your current boss if it’s not possible.
