[Digital] Coming to Terms with My 100-Year Life
WHAT IS THIS 100-YEAR LIFE?
Igniting Possibilities and Excitement in our X-years ahead
An audacious and yet incredibly rewarding mission that we'd like to challenge graduating youths and early career professionals to begin embarking. Multiple career transitions will be the norm, both as a result of a much longer working life brought about by extended longevity and external disruptions in a fast-changing world (such as COVID 19) and so it is here we answer TWO BIG QUESTIONS:
How we can ride the wave and make the most of things as part of a new normal?
How can we simultaneously manage and build a portfolio of new competencies alongside understanding my financial well-being, in order to prepare for a future which we can thrive in?
