The Course
Are you ready to take control of your future? Career Planning: Asking the Right Questions is a course designed to help you dive deep into the important questions that shape your career path. What kind of lifestyle do you want to live? How much money do you want to make? What are the things you truly enjoy doing, and how do they differ from what you simply want to do? This course will push you to think critically about your personal values, passions, and long-term goals, helping you bridge the gap between your dreams and practical choices.
The course also focuses on helping you think critically about your long-term goals, your motivations, and what truly fulfills you. By asking these thoughtful questions, you’ll gain clarity on not just what career path you should follow, but why it’s the right one for you. This reflective process is designed to help you make intentional, well-informed decisions that align with both your personal values and professional aspirations.
