Event description
Sparking new ideas and breaking with convention - what else could I be?
In this session, business leaders will share insights, lessons and tips to motivate and inspire your students to make informed decisions about their future.
Speakers will ‘tell a story’ about their career journey:
• Subjects they studied and how these are relevant now
• What inspired them to choose their career path
• Their failures, as well as successes
• What their company does and why this is important
• What they enjoy most about their career
• Skills currently relevant in the jobs they are doing now.
We are keen that students begin to understand the breadth of roles available in the workplace; that they can see themselves in less "obvious" jobs: that they rate less traditional roles as highly as a lawyer, accountant, engineer and that they value and connect the soft skills they are learning now with their future prospects.
