Case Study/Example: Sailing to Success

Imagine Sam, an HR pro seeking a fresh career wind. With the Voyager's Compass, Sam mapped their path. They ranked a corporate role (Impact: 8, Confidence: 7, Ease: 5) and an independent consulting venture (Impact: 9, Confidence: 6, Ease: 3). 

Though the corporate option was easier, the challenge of consulting excited Sam. They chose the latter, evolving their career and boosting their confidence.
