Exploring Core Values and Work Inspiration
All of us are driven by something deep inside but rarely do we take time to recognize and explore this motivation. Values are the driving force behind why we get up in the morning, the choices we make and why we behave the way we do. This presentation is two-fold. First, it is designed to help students identify and explore their core values through a series of reflective activities. Second, it will discuss how these values impact our personal and professional satisfaction. In order to gain clarity and live a happy and successful life, then understanding one’s values is fundamental.
