This session is for you if you...
Don't like your current job,
Think there must be more to life,
Aren't sure what that is,
Are scared of making change because alternatives seem impossible or too uncertain - so you discount alternatives,
But you still don't like your current job... 
Chartered Psychologist Rob Archer, and his colleague Kirsty Tifft from The Career Psychologist, specialise in helping people who are stuck and in career paralysis. This session is about the psychology of getting unstuck, identifying your best direction and moving forward with purpose.  </description>

Life after Law

<description>Do Something Different
Life is short. Really short. Too many capable and passionate people spend far too long doing work that doesn’t matter to them in big faceless corporations. What a tragedy. There are so many fights worth fighting, so many problems worth solving. We deserve more.
The conventional corporate path is seductive. Money, the perception of security, structure, hierarchy, bureaucracy. We believe that comfort kills ambition. We believe that no one wants to wake up in a couple of decades having missed the chance to do something amazing.
You’re not crazy if you’ve got that nagging feeling that there must be more to life than your current employment. You are definitely not alone. All around the world people are waking up to the fact that there is an alternative. We are the beating heart of that alternative.</description>
