Full Session Description:

Getting from vision to reality rarely happens overnight, and that journey can be puzzling even in the best of times. This workshop is for people who are thinking, “I’ve got ideas for my future, but how do I move forward?” Come with one or more ideas for your future, identify where you need more information, and leave with next steps. We’ll design experiments for “trying things on” through experiences, conversations and more. Join us for these 90 minutes to set aside other concerns, prioritize your career aspirations, and practice new tools.
