Spike (Like in Volleyball) = Where will I be the best?
Value = What value will I provide to others?

Values = What is most important to me which guides my career decisions?
Steps = What are likely steps that my career might take?
Double Spike (think of a two handed power spike in volleyball) = Where am I now in the double spike framework (Sitting Duck, Caught in the Middle, Networker, Guru or Double Spiker)
