Your Value Proposition
Your Value Proposition is a way of understanding and communicating your ‘professional self’. It communicates the value that you bring to the job market based on who you are and what you have done in your career. The key inputs to your Value Proposition include your Professional Identity, Values, Attributes, Skills and Achievements as well as the benefits you bring to an organisation.
This work book will lead you through a self-assessment process to identify these key inputs to your Value Proposition, which will feed into the various aspects of your career management activities. It will form the foundation for your key “marketing” messages, communicated through your resume, online branding (LinkedIn), networking conversations and job interviews.
The Value Proposition that you start to create in this workbook will be a resource to draw on as you communicate with others during future job searches and career conversations.
The particular way you say or write your Value Proposition will be influenced by context. It may be slightly different for:
Your résumé
Networking Conversations
Interview Situations
You will find examples of these different types of Value Proposition in the Workbook Appendix.

Who: Your Professional Identity
We all have a Professional Identity – the ‘who we are’ when we are working.
The words you use to describe your Professional Identity tend to revolve around professional, technical or functional experience. And note that you might have more than one Professional Identity.
Examples include:- - Business leader - IT Professional - Operations Manager - Business Analyst - Chartered Accountant
Write at least two different labels or titles that are used in the market to describe what you do.

Who: Your Values
Your Values are your beliefs about what is important in life. They reflect your preferences and expectations, both for yourself and of others. They can change over time. For example, security can become more important to you as you grow older or if you have a family.
Values motivate you and can be a guiding light that influences decisions about your career. They can also determine how you are perceived by others and become strongly associated with your Personal Brand.
A review of work related values is an integral part of a successful career plan. Values motivate you and therefore can influence decisions about your career. As a rule, people who pursue work which is congruent with their values feel a stronger sense of career satisfaction. Your values can also influence how you are perceived by others and become strongly associated with your Personal Brand.
Following is a list of values that have been commonly identified as being important to people in their careers. To begin exploring your own personal work values, rate each value listed with the following scale and add other values you consider essential to your list.
1.Things I value VERY MUCH 2. Things I VALUE 3. Things I DON’T VALUE very much

SKILLS INDEMAND
Do your own research here because the trends are always changing. However, as of 2018, most research notes that soft skills such as:
➢ leadership, communication, collaboration (with customers, stakeholders and co- workers), time management and interpersonal skills are in high demand.
A recent study by LinkedIn found that 57% of business leaders saw soft skills as more important than the ‘hard skills’ in technical roles.
Whilst there are many specific technical skills in demand, especially in the ICT and other professional areas, more general skills including:
➢ statistical analysis and data mining, Business analysis, Financial Management, presentation skills (especially complex and/or data-based information), administrative, compliance, investigative, project management/coordination and customer service skills are currently requirements for many roles.
Specific skills and knowledge in particular product categories or particular platforms and operating systems can also be in high demand.

POTENTIAL TARGETROLESOR INDUSTRIES

Growth Industries

Roles with current demand and forecast increases in demand (just a sample to get you thinking)
➢ ICT Professionals (eg Software and Applications Programmers, Cloud Architect, IT Manager, Web developer, ICT Business and Systems Analyst)

What: Your Achievements
Think about the important achievements in your work. The things that come to mind may not always be large in scale – they are the things you feel most proud of, for many and varied reasons.
Jot down at least three examples of positive outcomes or achievements in your career to date.
Include how your employer or others gained from your achievement. Also consider any achievements important to you that might fall outside your career and note these as well. You may find that all or most of the achievements that come to mind reflect the values, attributes and skills you have identified.
The following achievement categories may be helpful to get you started: People, Profits, Processes, Problems, Projects, Policy. Think of the positive impact and benefits you have brought to these different areas. The CAR model is a useful way of structuring your achievement statements:-
Circumstance: What was the situation/ background to the achievement, or challenge to be overcome?
Action: What did you personally do to resolve the problem, improve the situation or build the business?
Results: What were the outcomes & benefits to the organisation, client, colleagues etc?
Example:
Circumstance: A project involving a major client was going over budget. This would incur substantial cost to the business and put at risk both my own and the company’s professional reputation with this client.
Action: As project leader, I discussed the issues with my team and got agreement that a possible solution included negotiating a contract with a new supplier who could deliver at 10% less than the previous supplier and within a shorter time frame.
Results: I made use of my strong networks with various suppliers and secured a more attractive deal. As well as coming in on budget I was able to present this as a value-add to the client.

Creating Your Value Proposition
Your Value Proposition is made up of what you say and write about yourself with the intention of making yourself and your skill set attractive to your target market. It will be a resource you draw on as you communicate with others during your search for your next role.
The key elements of your Value Proposition are:
Who = Professional Identity + Values + Attributes
What = Skills + Achievements
Why = Benefits you bring (to an organisation, your customers, and those you work with)
A first draft of the above example Value Proposition might read as follows:- WHO:
I am an IT Professional
My key values are innovation, enjoying a challenge, and helping others.
My personal attributes include my ability to adapt, be persistent and tactful.
WHAT:
My skills are leading, influencing, mentoring, and problem solving.
My achievements are in the area of project managing large technological transformation initiatives.
WHY:
The benefits I bring to an organisation include helping a business to grow by leading initiatives, such as cloud and mobile technology, and mentoring more junior team members so they become more skilled and confident.

Next Steps
We suggest that you:
Continue to refine your Value Proposition. You may like to re-visit and reflect in more detail on the workbook activities to assist with this. You might ask others you trust for feedback on your Value Proposition. Review it with your target role/direction in mind, so that it focuses on the key selling points for that particular role.
Further consider and clarify your skills, especially the ‘Transferable Skills’ that may be relevant to other roles, beyond the role you are currently doing.
Review the resume templates on ACORN. Tailor your draft Value Proposition for use in your resume, referring to the example in the Appendix
Further consider and clarify your ‘Achievements’.
- It can be useful to discuss your achievements with trusted peers and colleagues. It is common for people to forget or undervalue their achievements and talking with others who have had some experience of your work can remind you of your contributions.
- Continue to develop your achievement statements in the suggested form (Circumstance, Action and Result). These can then be transferred over to your Resume.
