Are you happy in your job? Craft your ideal career by drilling deep into your passions and motivations and learn how to make it happen.

Are you stuck in a job you hate? Thinking about a career change, but are yet to take the leap? Worried you might be throwing away your years of experience or training?

Various factors, such as money and culture, influence our career choices. As a result we can end up climbing a career ladder that is not aligned with our true ambitions, motivations and values.

This inspirational workshop will once and for all help you nail down what your work happiness should look like and how to make it happen, with a clear roadmap for each step to take.

Lecturer and happiness consultant Samantha Clarke will help you decide whether you want to:

“Love it” – find ways to fall in love with your current role and cultivate your work happiness inside your existing company.

“Leave it” – know how to parcel up your skills and move on to the next job.

You will leave the day with an action plan to implement your work happiness, clarity on your next steps and knowledge of available resources.

- This is one of two career workshops taking place on the same day. How to get hired focuses on marketing yourself as a candidate. You can book this event here or buy a ticket for the whole day – and save 20%!
