• C – Combine: Which skills, knowledge and experience from different fields could you combine to offer something unique in the labour market?

• A – Adapt: ​​What can you borrow from other industries or sectors to make yourself stand out, reshape your career goals and enhance your employability?

• M – Modify: How can you modify your professional goals, expectations and identity to facilitate ongoing development? Can you magnify or minimise the importance of certain experiences, tasks, pathways, skills, or knowledge? Adjusting the scope of your responsibilities or the pathways you take may reveal new opportunities that align with your evolving strengths.

• P – Put to another use: In what ways can the skills, experience and knowledge you have gained in your previous or current profession be applied to a completely different business context?

• E – Eliminate: Which job activities, skills, experiences and areas of knowledge are unnecessary and do not add value? What could be simplified? Also identify any limiting beliefs, outdated assumptions or unhelpful habits that restrict career development. Eliminating these barriers creates space for clearer thinking and new possibilities.

Adopting a different perspective on goals, skills, and challenges can lead to innovative solutions to obstacles in the job market.
