Based on material from the popular Women Transforming Leadership course from Saïd Business School, University of Oxford, Make Your Own Map will help you develop a resilient and aspirational strategy for your career - whatever your starting point.

Effective methods of strategic planning have been tried and tested in the corporate business world, and this book shows you how to repurpose those methods for yourself, even if you're not in the corporate world. Packed with strategic tools and practical exercises, this book will help you:

Assess and define your career goals
Make a plan
Implement your plan to find the work that fits your needs, your skills, and your direction.

With your best career as the goal, this book will help you forge your own path and Make Your Own Map.
