What do you want to be when you grown up? Where do you see yourself in 10 years? Chances are you don't have a concrete answer to this questions. If you are unsure which career path to take, join this rewarding journey of self-discovery, creative design and action taking! It could change the trajectory of your life!
This 6-week course you will give you the right tools to build the career that you have always wanted: a fulfilling one. Through activities like journaling, prototyping and mind mapping, you will let go of limiting beliefs and embrace a designer-like creative mindset where career co-creation is not only made possible but also made fun!
You'll meet your instructor and get to know the other participants. You will be confronted with common limiting beliefs such as “I need to find that ONE BIG passion of mine” or “I should have figured it all out by now”. You will understand why such beliefs are dysfunctional and how to apply design thinking principles and tools to combat them.
In this session you will formulate your personal True North statement: an invaluable compass that will guide your quest of finding a meaningful and fulfilling career.
In this session you will unleash your creative power and develop several realistic life scenarios for yourself, called game plans. You will discuss them in the group and assess them based on several key parameters such as alignment with your True North statement.
In this session you will “test drive” your game plans. Through performing low-risk prototyping activities you will understand whether your life scenarios can actually withstand reality.
In this session you will understand how the recruitment process traditionally works. You will also learn useful tips and tricks that will help you navigate it better. Lastly, you will learn how to access a “hidden” but abundant job market using the power of networking.
In this session you will present and discuss your career plan with the group and receive valuable feedback. This is usually the most emotional moment from the course as you will realize how far you have come in just a few weeks!
The Career Design and Development course was a worthwhile experience. Taking part in the course has been revealing and it has helped in my career design process. I really enjoyed the interactions, exercises, and the fact that we received feedback to assist us in the right direction. It was a great learning opportunity.
Career Design and Development was more than a course. It turned out that we immensely improved ourselves both spiritually and mentally to have a fulfilling career path in only 6 weeks. Thanks to our trainer and my classmates, I enjoyed every second of our class which has a supportive and peaceful atmosphere. Hence, I gladly recommend this course which can be rarely found.
If you would like a holistic and well-structured approach to career development, this is the course for you. In 6 weeks I really went from internal exploration to taking action steps in the work field. Combined with supportive guidance and interesting material, I would highly recommend this course.
