The Future Self of Work, Gen Z and Career Identity
University taught you how to think critically. But did it prepare you for the emotional weight of choosing a career? If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by options, unsure of your direction, or stuck between “what I should do” and “what I actually want,” this event is for you.
We’re bringing together students, recent grads, and career development leaders to explore the deeper questions young adults are asking about work today:
What if I don’t know who I want to be yet?
How do I build a career that reflects my real values, not just my CV?
Is it normal to feel lost, even with a degree in hand?
This webinar isn’t about writing a perfect cover letter. It’s about making space for reflection, identity, and inner voice. Career isn’t just a job search, it’s a self-story in progress.
Format:
10-min student story sharing real-world experience
30-min panel discussion on career transition
Interactive polls like “What word best describes how you feel about your future career?”
20-min live reflection in small breakout groups
Why Attend:
Feel seen in your career uncertainty without the pressure to perform
Learn from real experiences and academic insights on student identity development
Connect with others navigating the same unknowns
Speakers:
Your future isn’t a formula, it’s a conversation. Let’s start it together.
