FREE online courses on Training a new focus - Traits of free agents

 

·         Free agents use new approaches to learning and teach themselves using a variety of resources.

 

·         They don't expect a lifetime career with a single employer.

 

·         They focus on employability based on their expertise, knowledge base, reputation and networks.

 

·         They have a  ‘portfolio of assets' which, adds value to the organization employing them.

 

·         Their career goals motivate them to keep learning. They have little patience with planned learning experiences that don't match their format, timing and location. They seek to learn wherever and from whomever they can.

 

·         They expect their employers to offer them opportunities for growth through learning and the application of that learning.
