ACTION PLANS RELATED TO CAREER ADVANCEMENT, RAISES AND PROMOTIONS
MAP OUT CAREER PATH AND STRATEGIZE AN EXECUTION PLAN
This Action Plan will help you map out the exact path you need to take to reach your dream job title. You probably cannot leapfrog certain positions so it would be helpful if you took time to fully understand how you will get to where you want to be. For each prerequisite job position, you will research who you need to make connections with and what ways you can fast-track your progress (if any). The better you understand the journey and timelines, the more motivated you may be in doing what is necessary.
SHOW LEADERSHIP BY CREATING A PROFESSIONAL ORGANIZATION
This Action Plan will help you create and grow a professional association. A professional association (also called a professional body, professional organization, or professional society) seeks to further a particular profession, the interests of individuals engaged in that profession and the public interest. Leading an organization like this will not only provide invaluable connections and opportunities, but it will also establish you as a leader in the industry.
FIND AND CONVINCE INDUSTRY LEADERS TO BECOME YOUR MENTORS
This Action Plan will help you get a mentor who will benefit your career with advice, motivational support, connections/introductions and more. First you and your Architect will list all potential mentors and then rank them from “dream mentor” to “alright mentor”. From there we will contact them one by one until you obtain the benefits you desire. Because you will be using the Akwai app you will have a wealth of information about your journey. This will get potential mentors excited about working with you. It will also make it easier for them to mentor you since the app makes it clear what you will be doing and how you are incorporating their advice.
PROVE HIREABILITY BY IDEATING AND COMPLETING INNOVATIVE SIDE PROJECTS
An Akwai Portfolio is a repository of information, documents, vlogs and media that tell a story about your journey. The app and your Architect can generate tons of data, charts, graphs and tables that help others understand the work that you did to make yourself the best candidate for the job. Some of the accomplishments your Portfolio can showcase are; Virtual Internships you completed, skills you developed by completing Skill-based Action Plans, wellness practices you are incorporating via Wellness-based Action Plans and more… While everyone else will be coming to the interview with a resume and cover letter, you will have a robust Akwai Portfolio that will put you on a whole other playing field.
CREATE YOUR OWN ‘AKWAI VIRTUAL INTERNSHIP’ TO PROVE HIREABILITY
A Virtual Internship is a ~4-month experience that will help you learn about a specific job title, practice the skills/duties required of the position and demonstrate your ability to succeed in the role. No travelling or working with managers required, the entire experience is confined to the Akwai app and the things you do wherever you are. Optionally, your Architect (Akwai coach) will help you get the Virtual Internship endorsed by someone with the authority to vouch that it is sufficiently rigorous, either at the company where you want to work or another company with similar operations. Rather than waiting for someone to give you the opportunity to gain experience, you [and your Architect] will do the necessary research to produce a Virtual Internship that will help you [a] get your foot in the door and [b] sound competent in an interview.
SEND OUT AN OBSCENE AMOUNT OF JOB APPLICATIONS UNTIL YOU GET YOUR DREAM JOB
This Action Plan is simple but extremely powerful – it will help you send as many job applications as it takes to get you your dream job. For the first time in American history, the number of job openings exceeds the number of people who are looking for work. This means that it is a “job seekers market”. The more applications you submit, the higher your chances are of landing the job you want. Through this Action Plan your Architect keep you consistent in this endeavor.
DISCOVER WHAT MAKES YOU UNIQUE AND LEVERAGE IT TO IMPROVE YOUR CAREER
What are your strengths? What things do you desire to do more of? Are you fully utilizing your past experiences to be successful at your job? Are there ways that your desires, interests and passions can benefit the company you work for? This Action Plan will help you discover what makes you unique and leverage it as a strategic advantage.
DEMONSTRATE LEADERSHIP BY FINDING AND MENTORING A YOUNGER PROFESSIONAL
What is the best way to prove that you have management capabilities? Manage someone! Through this Action Plan you will be guided on temporarily becoming an Architect and coaching someone else toward their goal. We will help you find someone who is ideal for you to mentor/coach (e.g. someone in your field, a student on a path toward your field etc). You can even create a custom Action Plan for them based on the types of things your subordinates would track if you got the promotion you are seeking.
CHOOSE YOUR JOB DUTIES AND SALARY BY CRAFTING AN INTRAPRENEURSHIP PROPOSAL
Intrapreneurship is the act of behaving like an entrepreneur while working within the company you currently work at. This Action Plan will help you build an innovative product, service or business for the benefit of your employer.

This view creates a love of learning, confidence and a resilience that is essential for great accomplishment.
UNDERSTAND AND PRACTICE TACTICS THAT PROMOTE MENTAL WELLNESS AND JOY
A lot of people believe that mental wellness is something that only people in “crisis” need to focus on. This is very far from the truth. Everyone would greatly benefit from understanding and being more mindful of mental wellness best practices.

This Action Plan will help you understand and practice mental wellness best practices.
