    Hi Liam,

    Where would you place a mind map representing your career (CV) seen from different perspectives?

    I started to share my CV on LinkedIn using a mind map to demonstrate that each of us have multiple skills (got sidetracked by a project so need to finish the series 🧐 ) - that might not fit in to an online application form, but represents strengths and what you can bring to the table.

    Best regards,

    Jens Brinch

    Hi Jens - sounds like an interesting mental exercise, which probably helps to create a CV tailored for the different variations of a job a person might apply for. Are you suggesting this would be a good presentation topic for a Biggerplate Connect event, or am I misunderstanding?

    Hi Liam, I was more seeing this as an exercise for the individual 🧐

    It would be fantastic if a company would spend some time on evaluating what they actually need of qualifications for a specific position - it's too easy to create a "wish list" which only a very few if any might be able to match 😲

    Having some life experience 🤫 I find that many would benefit from stepping back and with an open mind review their own history in order to find their strengths aka their spot of excellence and where they thrive 🤓

    I spend 20+ years before a friend hit the nail by asking this one question, that made me aware of my strengths and where I thrive 😏

    I will let you decide whether it's a potential topic for a Biggerplate Connect Event or not - I am open to show up presenting my personal history 😎

    Best regards,

    Jens Brinch

    @Jens Brinch Moeller I like this. We actually have quite a few mind map templates/examples on Biggerplate which are to help people explore/review/plan around their career.

    One idea I have is to possibly include this in our December 2023 Biggerplate Connect event (not yet published) which will be focused on making 2024 your best year. I think the topic could fit nicely with that event, showing how an individual can pause at the end of 2023, and do the reflection and thinking that you describe, using MindMeister to help!

    If you're interested to present your ideas, let me know… you still have a bit of time to prepare…! 😂

    This is a great article - and excellent use of mind mapping to explore beyond the confines of a traditional CV/resume!
