In helping young people prepare for a life of work, asking them what they want to do for a job, or what they’re good at may limit their options. 

Learn a different way of thinking about careers that focuses on challenges, rather than job titles. 

Guests:

JP Michel, organisational psychologist and author, The World Needs You: A New Mindset for Career Exploration

Kate McBeath, who works with career advisors in schools in Australia and New Zealand

Tired and overwhelmed? Boundaries can help

You spend so much time on work, why accept the status quo, when there are ways to do it better? Get expert advice, research and hacks that will crush your inertia.

Join Lisa Leong and other This Working Lifers as we experiment and explore the latest in the world of work.
 

We cover policy issues, like hybrid workplaces and remote work, employee wellbeing and organisational culture, the use of AI, employee surveillance, employee engagement, diversity and inclusion. We talk about progress on wider issues that relate to work, like work life balance, organisational change, restructures, and casualisation. On This Working Life our focus is on everything related to the people in a workplace too, including culture, individual experiences, performance management and career advice.
