Self-motivation, independent learning, effective time and money management, and self-promotion are all necessary skills for an employee to take responsibility for their career. Goal orientation and networking (A) are important, but they are only a part of the necessary skillset. Career planning and self-assessment (C) are helpful, but they do not fully encompass the skills needed. Entrepreneurialism and money management (D) are not essential for all careers and situations. Effective time management (E) is also necessary, but it is only one of the skills needed for taking responsibility for one's career.
