PDP is a tool to help crew grow. It is entirely up to each crew how they want to use it to help themselves. However, we want to ensure that everyone have goal to achieve, which is why PDP Form is Mandatory to submit.

❓ How do I identify my goal?

You can identify your goal by doing SWOT Analysis, and translate them into Action Plan using SMART Framework.

SWOT Analysis

SWOT Analysis is an Analysis Approach to define a goal :

• Strength : What are you good at ? What do you like ? What do you want to excel at ?
• Weakness : What are you lacking ? What things do you need to improve ?
• Opportunity : What opportunity you have in work or outside of work ?
• Threat : What obstacle might prevent you to achieve your goal ?

SMART Framework

SMART Framework is a methodology to achieve a goal :

• Specific : Define your goal to be more specific and less abstract
• Measurable : Find a way to measure your progress, and make your goal more tangible
• Achievable : Assess whether your goal is realistic and feasible

• Time Bound : Set a deadline for this goal

PDP Execution
