Workshop 4: Planning and Targeting
This is the last workshop of the Brave Starts programme, where we cover how you need to think differently in a working world not yet designed for the longer lives we are now leading.
What we'll cover:
New ways of thinking and how you need to challenge some of your own misconceptions.
Strategies to help you target your actions more constructively.
Where we can, we'll encourage and facilitate introductions to other members and experts who can support you to develop your knowledge and contacts in sectors you're looking for in terms of additional support.
About our small member-only workshops:
To enable free flowing discussion, we do not record sessions.
You should come prepared to talk in small groups and be willing to share your experiences.
The majority of our members work in professional roles, mums who have taken career breaks, people who are bored and want a change, people who have retired and want to go back to work, people over 45 looking for work but who feel frustrated.
