NAVIGATE® Career Values Cards

What actually makes work right for you?

Our career choices are shaped not only by what we can do, but also by what we look for in the work experience and what we need in order to feel aligned with it.

NAVIGATE® Career Values Cards were designed to help practitioners explore what individuals look for in their professional experience, what they need in order to feel aligned with their work, and what shapes their career choices and decisions.

NAVIGATE® Career Values Cards

Why career values?

We may know the field we want to work in and hold the skills a job requires, yet still not always feel aligned with it.

60 career values across 6 groups

Written in the context of work and career, and organised into groups that cover different aspects of the professional experience.

What makes NAVIGATE® cards different?

The exploration begins during the selection itself, not only once a result has been reached.

Sometimes the question is not only: What do I want to do? but: What do I want from work?

We may know the field we want to work in, and we may have the skills a job requires, yet we do not always feel aligned with it.

Work is not only about what we do; it is also about what we look for in our professional experience and what we need from it.

Achievement and progression may be one person's priority, while another looks for learning and growth, autonomy, stability, relationships, or reward and meaning.

Understanding those priorities helps a person explore deeper questions:

  • What am I really looking for in my career?
  • What do I need in order to feel aligned with my work?
  • What is missing in my current situation?
  • What shapes my career choices and decisions?

NAVIGATE® Career Values Cards

The tool includes 60 career values written in the context of work and career, organised into 6 groups that cover different aspects of the professional experience.

The cards are designed to help the practitioner move the client from simply picking the values that seem important to them, to a deeper professional conversation that helps them understand their priorities and connect them to their experiences, options and career decisions.

The value is not only in choosing the card… it is in the conversation it opens. A tool that makes the client a partner in the exploration, rather than settling for a list of values or a ready-made result.

60 career values across 6 groups

The six groups cover different aspects of the professional experience and help explore priorities in a structured, connected way.

01

Achievement & Career Aspirations

الإنجاز والطموح

What do I want to achieve and reach in my career?

02

Growth & Learning

النمو والتعلم

How do I want to learn, grow and develop?

03

Work Environment & Lifestyle

بيئة العمل ونمط الحياة

What working conditions do I need for work to suit me?

04

Autonomy & Work Style

الاستقلالية وطبيعة العمل

How do I want to do my work?

05

Relationships & Organizational Culture

العلاقات والثقافة التنظيمية

What kind of relationships and culture do I need at work?

06

Rewards & Purpose

العائد والمعنى

What do I want to gain and fulfil through my work?

Each group represents a different aspect of the work experience, while the full picture helps show where a person's career priorities are concentrated.

A look inside the deck

Three cards out of 60. Every card carries the value name in Arabic and English, a clear statement of what it means in the context of work, and a code marking its group and colour.

التطور المهني — Professional Development
وضوح الدور — Role Clarity
الإنجاز — Achievement

The remaining values are revealed after purchase, to preserve the value of the tool for practitioners.

What makes NAVIGATE® cards different?

60 career values

A diverse set of values, carefully written in the context of work and professional experience.

6 organised groups

Values sit within six connected aspects, helping explore priorities more broadly and more clearly.

Exploration starts during the activity

The cards open space for reflection and dialogue during the selection itself, not only once a result appears.

More than picking values

The tool helps explore what a value means to the person, why it matters to them, and how it relates to their professional experience.

Connected to career choices and decisions

What emerges during the exploration can be used to understand the current situation and think more deeply about options and decisions.

A complete Practitioner Guide

The tool comes with a professional guide explaining how to apply it and use it in coaching, counselling and career development sessions.

Not just a set of values cards: a tool that turns values into dialogue, and dialogue into a deeper understanding of career priorities.
