Description
Most large organizations have professional development budgets. The same isn’t true for smaller companies or solopreneurs, so you have to get creative in how you’ll stay up-to-date on the latest trends and industry development, and improve your skills.
Your professional development ultimately benefits your clients in many ways. You’ll be able to think in original and creative ways to meet their needs. While it can be time-consuming and expensive, the cost of not doing professional development is way higher! For one, your competition will surpass you, and in business the goal is always to stay ahead.
Here are some ways to do your own professional development:
Read the news every morning.
Spend 80% of your non-work time learning and improving yourself.
Go to conferences based on your learning priorities.
Take an online course.
Hire a coach.
