If you are new
around here, you might be a bit confused about Career Jam.
You may also not
be familiar with Wendy Enelow, the founder of Career Thought Leaders and
visionary behind the event.
Twelve years ago,
Wendy started Career Jam (then called Global
Career Brainstorming Day) to bring other visionary career services providers
together to share their experiences and learn from each other while also having
an opportunity to be published in an industry white paper.
The event has
evolved over recent years, changing to focus on how “megatrends” – factors like
technology, economic trends, and social trends – are impacting careers and our
work. |
|
|
But the focus continued of bringing career pros together – in person and online – to build connection and learn.
We’ve been ahead of the curve many times, including talking about the importance of remote work and diversity during our 2019 event (download that White Paper for tips on those trends that are still relevant today!).
We’ve also missed the mark – I explore some of our bloopers in this video.
In 2020, when people were disappointed about missing the in-person element, we decide to add a new element with presenters sharing an overview of the trends before we dove into group discussions. This also enabled a global element that will continue this year with speakers from Nigeria, Singapore, Turkey, the US, and more!
We also adjusted the White Paper to better feature quotes from attendees. You can download last year’s paper here to get a look.
So, today (well, two weeks from now) Career Jam attendees receive:
- Access to 7 presentations from experts in Hiring & Job Search Technology, Older Workers / New Retirement Models, Rise in Entrepreneurship, Burnout / Disengagement, and Rise in Skills-Based Hiring.
- Access to the live discussions with peers following these presentations to process and learn what each other sees going on in our work and what strategies we are employing in response.
- Access to the recordings of the presentations, including transcripts.
- Access to submit quotes for the White Paper regardless of attendance at the live sessions.
- Listing as a contributor to the White Paper.
- And, of course, the priceless value of connecting and building relationships with your peers globally in the small group discussions you attend live.
This is one of my favorite events of the year and I look forward to seeing you there! |
