JourneyFolio
JourneyFolio is a structured framework for creating a personal narrative that goes beyond a traditional resume. It allows participants to visually document their life achievements, skills, and unique experiences using a timeline format in Google Slides.
How to run it
- 1
Create a timeline grid in Google Slides.
- 2
Divide the timeline into layers for Personal Highlights, Education and Learning, Side Projects, and Professional Path.
- 3
Populate each layer with relevant stories, images, and artifacts.
- 4
Use hyperlinks to connect each story back to the main timeline.
- 5
Customize the slide templates with colors and icons to represent different layers.
Tips
Encourage participants to involve friends or colleagues for feedback and additional insights.
Make sure to add personal anecdotes and visuals to make the JourneyFolio more engaging.
Use clear hyperlinks for easy navigation between slides.
Variations
Consider adapting the JourneyFolio for team-building by having participants share their timelines with each other, fostering deeper connections. Alternatively, use it as a reflective exercise in career coaching sessions.
