Whether you're still in school and haven't started your career, just got your first job, or in mid-career, the topic of career planning is hugely important.  As Lewis Carroll said, "If you don't know where you are going, any road will get you there."  Most people don't pay enough attention to career planning or think about it too narrowly and then wonder why they don't have the career they truly wanted.  Karel addresses this topic by introducing three factors that he believes are key to consider during pre-career, early career, and mid-career planning.  He then takes each and gives advice on how to approach making progress in a tangible way.
