Event Overview
This three-part Thought Partner Program is designed for higher education professionals looking to explore career growth, build meaningful connections, and gain fresh perspectives on their professional journey. Through interactive discussions, reflective activities, and shared experiences, participants will examine different pathways for advancement—whether moving upward, transitioning into adjacent roles, or making parallel career shifts.

Each session offers a collaborative space to exchange ideas, challenge assumptions, and strategize next steps for professional growth.
This program is ideal for professionals at all career stages who want to expand their career possibilities, connect with peers, and gain strategic insights into career navigation in higher education.

Session Themes:
Forward Possibilities: Strategies for upward career mobility—how to position yourself for leadership roles and navigate promotion pathways.
Adjacent Possibilities: Exploring career moves that leverage your existing skills in new contexts—within or beyond your current institution.
Parallel Possibilities: Understanding lateral career shifts—how to make purposeful moves that build long-term value.

Outcomes:
 
- Clarify what career advancement looks like in higher education and identify actionable steps to achieve it.
 - Discover new and adjacent career opportunities that align with your skills, values, and aspirations.
 - Learn how to navigate parallel career moves—when and why to consider them, and how to articulate their value.
 - Reflect on personal career goals and develop a roadmap for future growth.
