In this fast-paced, ever-changing, increasingly globalized world, we need to be able to understand how to work effectively with many different types of people to reach our goals. In this workshop, we will focus on cultural intelligence to assess your own cultural values and behavioral preferences while understanding where others may be coming from. Participants will have the opportunity to practice how to navigate cultural misunderstandings that may occur within your research or a major project team and develop plans for how to continue building your cultural intelligence.

Choosing a career path after graduate school can feel overwhelming—there are so many possibilities, and it’s hard to know where to start. If you’ve ever felt uncertain about what comes next, this workshop will help you cut through the noise and discover what truly matters to you. You will define your own “Career Compass”—composed of your life needs, career skills, and mission statement—that can help you focus your career exploration and job search strategies. The self-awareness developed through the exercises in this workshop can help you clarify career fields, work environments, and a lifestyle that are the best match for you.
Goals
Understand the purpose of self-assessment within the career development process
Identify and articulate your values, skills, life needs, and inspirations
Utilize the career compass framework to guide career exploration and evaluate career options
Embrace that your values, interests, and needs change over time and that career exploration and evaluation is a life-long process
