  The Next Question & the Evolution of CDP

  Career development has evolved through two defining questions: "What is available?" and "Where do you fit?" Steve Miller's Implicit Career Search theory proposes the field is ready for a third: "What will you contribute?" This session explores how to help clients answer that question — and how to turn their answer into a career. Spoiler: it's easier than it sounds.

  This interactive session begins with an engaging introduction that invites participants to join the conversation through the chat. A “Take Charge” exercise follows, incorporating light movement and participant responses to keep energy high. Depending on timing and group engagement, breakout discussions may be included, though a highly interactive group may carry the conversation throughout. The session concludes with a lively question period, ensuring participants have the opportunity to share insights and ask questions.
