There are many reasons to take your future into your own hands and plan your own life. What you are currently learning is not very likely to be useful to you in the future.

You can believe in miracles, but there are no miracles, there are patterns. They also apply to your life.

Developing your strategy is an essential step towards your life goals.

Характеристики курса по разработке личных стратегий:

1. This online course is the very first course you need to complete before making any critical decisions in life. We make many choices in life: the choice of school and university, profession and career path, own business, employment or downshifting, retirement or continuing work, and many others.
2. Developing a detailed long-term plan is your best investment in the future and the first and most essential step to increase your chances of success in life. Your strategy will help you allocate your time and resources correctly.
3. Minimum loss of time. People often regret that they have not done something or have done something in vain. Because they usually first do and then think. We have to turn this familiar situation around and think over in advance what we should do in our lives and what we should not.
4. The course contains a maximum of practical lessons on strategy development. As a result of your work on the course, you will receive a clear plan for achieving your life goals. Most likely, it will contain several long-term interconnected projects of self-development in various spheres of life and real actions for the implementation of these projects.
5. The sooner you develop your strategy, the better. We are still studying at what age it is advisable to create a personal long-term plan, but, in any case, the earlier you think about it, the better. To develop an aligned educational trajectory, you have to consider not only personal strategic goals but also trends in the economy, industries, countries and the world as a whole. This task is quite challenging without our method.
6. The course also includes a short introduction to the Scrum methodology which we can use to manage course learning.

Each person sooner or later faces changes and the need to rethink their life. That’s why this course is the very first online course you need to complete before making any crucial decisions: choosing a career path, education and training, start your own business, downshifting or complete reboot.

If you ask yourself one of the following questions, then developing a personal strategy will help answer each of them:

1. Why am I tired of my work?
2. How to deal with professional burnout?
3. What should I do next, what should I learn, what industry is right for me if my work does not meet my expectations?
4. What goals to set and why?
5. How to choose the direction of your future activity, evaluate its prospects?
6. How to set criteria for self-development and achieve independence?
7. How to realise your dreams?
8. How to reload your life and not lose your achievements?
9. How to build a new professional development strategy based on your experience and knowledge?
10. How to start from scratch or get new sources of income in the new economy?
11. How to move into a new career?
12. How to change the way I work?
13. How to overcome the glass ceiling?
14. How to find my niche?

In practice retraining and entering a new sphere, for example, programming works only for a small part of people. Although we study successful cases in the course, we understand that it is impossible to copy someone else’s experience. We need to conduct a thorough strategic analysis of our specific situation and our future development.

If at least one of these statements is true, then our course best suits your needs:

1. You are going to make significant changes in life, and don’t know how and when to start.
2. You understand that your career in the company is fading and experience problems with self-realisation.
3. Your young colleagues, despite their lower qualifications, are more likely to be in a manager position.
4. You feel that it is difficult for you to adopt new technologies.
5. You think about changing your career, starting your business, monetising your hobby or about downshifting.
6. You can not figure out exactly which market niche or which new profession to choose and learn.
7. You live with a lack of job security, and you are worried about the future.
8. You ask yourself the following questions: Which scenario to choose? Should I hold on to existing work? Will I lose my job and when? How high are my chances of finding a position better than the current, and how big are the chances of finding a job much worse, or not finding a job at all? Should I start my own business, and if so, which one? Is this an easy way? How can this affect my primary resources: time and health? How does this life strategy depend on my age? In what trajectory of life is my age and experience an advantage, and in which is not?

You have no choice, your accumulated experience – your primary asset is significantly depreciated every few years in many industries.

The top positions of many companies are occupied by people of the retirement age, which is a reflection of the so-called “ageing managers” process, which makes the chances for your corporate career very unlikely.

The economy in many countries stagnates, your dismissal will happen sooner or later. Such economic conditions dramatically reduce the likelihood of a successful career, if you have not done it before forty years. Moreover, if you lose your job at 40-45 +, then the chances of maintaining your standard of living and finding a similar position are low.

Don’t you have more ambitious plans or dreams? Are you sure that they are achievable without a strategy?

• Identify goals that are important to you (business, life, career, educational and others).
• Develop a clear long-term plan to achieve these goals (personal strategy).
• Learn how to adapt your strategic plan to change.
• The course also covers the basics of the Scrum methodology adapted for strategy development purposes.

Who is this course for:

• People who have an interest in personal growth
• People in business and entrepreneurs
• Full or part-time employees
• Public or private sector employees
• University students or graduates
• People who concerned about their future

In this course, you will not only learn how to create an advanced personal plan but develop it. In addition to studying the methods and tools for developing a strategy, you master the Strategium Space Scrum method (as applied to strategic planning).

Therefore, you get a double benefit and the following practical outcomes:

1. You will create an advanced strategy for realising your personal strategic goals.
2. Implementing your strategy will be your daily task.
3. Skills and knowledge gained in this course are universal and never become obsolete.  They contribute to your competitive advantage which is hard to copy.
4. A systematic look at achieving the goals and other knowledge and skills you get will be useful in many areas of your life for many years.

To be confident about your future, you need to thoroughly understand what, how and when you are going to achieve.

A personal long-term financial plan can supplement a strategy but that in no way replaces it.

During the course, you will learn the Strategium Space Scrum method.

Each lesson for each of the 11 sprints of this method contains all the necessary templates, checklists and guidelines in the form of text, graphics, video (screencasts) or audio information.

You need to perform specific tasks in the lesson that will advance you to the result under the approach. All stages constitute a logical sequence and ensure the quality of the outcome.

The results of each stage (sprint) are almost finished parts of your strategy ready to integrate into one document or presentation, convenient for adjusting if necessary.

You can see the list of lessons at the bottom of this page. There are free open lessons that you can take without registering. Some lessons contain attachments (links are next to lessons name).

The training program consists of several modules:

Module 1. Study of the approach, planning and preparation for work.

Module 2. In-depth analysis of your abilities, career guidance, development trajectory and others.

Module 3. Step-by-step development of a personal strategy.

Module 4. Implementation of personal strategy and additional information.

Module 5. Lessons for personal strategy consultants (to be developed).

You can get a certificate if you complete all homework assignments within the course and get a planned learning outcome.

We can provide a sample certificate upon request. Let us know if necessary.
