Personal-Development Plan Date:  THINK OF A self-development plan as a business plan for your career growth. Like a business plan, it should state your desired goals (both short-term and long-term), your objectives, and the resources you need.

All elements of the plan should be specific enough to allow you to self-monitor your progress.  Part 1: Career Goals. In this section, state the direction you want your career to take.
