Whether you have a clearly defined career goal or aren’t even sure where to start in your career thinking, it’s more than likely the path forward will have twists and turns, crossroads and cul de sacs, tangents and roundabouts.  In this 60 minute webinar, you’ll learn how to navigate squiggly careers by using your research skills and creativity to ask the right questions, gather data to inform and support decision making, cope with uncertainty and adapt to the unexpected.
