Description
We’re sure you’re probably very keen to forget the year 2020. But perhaps it’s even more important than ever to reflect on the challenging year we had. We are both fans of reflection and planning, and we do these regularly for our private lives but how about our professional development?
Inspired by the YearCompass (https://yearcompass.com/) we are inviting you to celebrate your victories, learn from your mistakes and set out new goals. What were you most proud of? Who/what influenced you the most? What was the biggest surprise of the year? Join us to answer these and other questions and share some insights and ideas.
The second part of the YearCompass is about looking forward, so that’s what we will help you to do! By the end of the session, you will have a professional development plan that will help you with the year ahead. We would like the session to be partitcipant-driven, so make sure you have your microphone (and maybe your camera) on!
