The Intentional Career - Using strategic thinking & a hypothesis driven mindset to unlock your career & life
Too often, our career choices, big and small, are reactions to events in life and work - this reactive approach often results in unsatisfying zig zags that causes you to miss your goals, both professional and personal. On the other hand, thinking about the future when there’s so much uncertainty is HARD.
This session, an iteration on last year's popular talk of "Whatcha Doing Over There?”, shows you how you can create a long term, proactive approach to your career that can be tackled in small, achievable, hypothesis driven actions in your day to day work and life. Whether you want to get into management, start your own company, or want to have tonnes of personal freedom, it's possible to get there faster through this talk.
You will learn how to:
* Create a long term plan that can be deconstructed to actionable short term activities.
* Learn a hypothesis driven mindset that let’s you learn from results without overthinking them
* Treat work as something you test and improve, not something you judge
* Better prepare yourself for the “waves” that come.
