In this subject, students will explore approaches to career choice, career management, and leadership that enable wellbeing, high quality motivation, and performance. Drawing on design thinking and implementation science, students will have the opportunity to craft their own career and education development plan, applying the science to their future development.
Students will investigate key questions such as: How much does money matter? What are the factors that promote flourishing in education and throughout one’s career? What approaches can be used to promote flourishing in ongoing learning, education, and career development practices? How can I develop leadership skills that can be used to help individuals and organisations to thrive?
This subject will draw on a range of reflective learning, experiential learning, and skill-building techniques and exercises to enable students to develop a tool-kit to foster flourishing over the course of their education and career.
