Driven by her passion to guide individuals on their career paths, volunteer Career Advisor (vCA) Sharon Soon shares her own career journey and the profound impact her mentor had on her success.
“I've been fortunate to have an amazing mentor who inspires me every day. Her focus on purpose beyond career titles or money has helped me appreciate the bigger picture in work and life. Whenever I encounter a challenge, I would ask myself,
"What would my mentor do in this situation?".
Developing one’s professional and social networks can offer a wealth of benefits. Over the years, I've transformed my roles and career path multiple times, recognising that success can take many forms and be achieved through various routes.
By embracing life's surprises and maintaining a sense of curiosity, we can redefine success on our own terms.”
