By the conclusion of the Implementation Planning phase, what dual understanding should the client possess?
Not just what they want to do, but how they will get there.
The Implementation Planning phase represents the final, action-oriented step in the structured career counseling sequence, designed to translate theoretical clarity into tangible execution. This phase moves beyond the decision itself and focuses exclusively on creating actionable pathways. Therefore, the successful conclusion of this stage is marked by the client achieving two integrated levels of knowledge: clarity regarding their desired vocational destination (what they want to do) and a concrete, step-by-step strategy (how they will get there). This strategy often materializes as a tangible plan involving resume updates, specific networking goals, or enrolling in particular training programs, ensuring the client leaves the engagement equipped with both purpose and procedure.
