That said, cultivating these skills and navigating the ever-changing workplace can be a challenge without clear goals and proper guidance.  This can quickly turn into an obstacle to your professional growth.

If you need advice on how to move your career forward, but don’t know how to go about it, consider the American Chamber of Commerce in Sweden’s (AmCham) mentoring program.

The program is dedicated to building a community of like-minded professionals by matching experienced mentors and ambitious mentees. It’s eight months long and comprises one workshop every month, meet and greets and one-on-one sessions to help you move your career forward.

''I wanted new perspectives, to expand my network, time to reflect, and a mentor that could help me to accelerate my development. The program fulfilled all of the above!'' says Carl Johan Renvall who works at investment firm Triton Partners.
