SUMMARY:Career Champions: Helping employees and job seekers reflect on their career plan (Host: BC)
DESCRIPTION:In normal circumstances\, after a milestone\, challenge\, or success\, we often find ourselves thinking back and wondering what we could have done better\, what went well\, and what different decisions could have been made. In the wake of COVID-19\, or any large-scale event of this nature where people have had time to reflect\, it is then no surprise to see data pointing to “mass resignations”. For example\, a survey by Lighthouse Labs found that 57% of Canadians would change careers if given the opportunity\, which for many is the pandemic. \nEmployees’ expectations have shifted as a result of the pandemic. IBM’s global survey shows that employees prioritize work-life balance (51%)\, career advancement opportunities (43%)\, compensation and benefits (41%)\, employer ethics and values (41%) and continuous learning opportunities (36%). Similarly\, the pandemic has impacted student and prospective employee expectations\, increasing demand for career-oriented programs\, internship and post-graduate work opportunities\, career counseling resources\, and upskilling courses. A survey of 6\,500 students and graduates found that the pandemic has caused about 30% to change their career plans\, while just under 40% stated that they are still uncertain. \nThese changing expectations and increasing self-reflection are not a bad omen however. Reflection helps us gain insight from past experiences and better understand our own strengths\, skills gaps\, passions\, and aspirations. Reflecting as a group or organization also enhances the lessons learned by exploring additional perspectives which can often reveal new insights and innovative solutions. \nJoin leaders as they share their personal and organizational experiences and learnings on the importance of reflection as it relates to career planning and organizational resourcing\, and as a means of building future ready communities\, employers\, employees\, and job seekers: \n\nGraham Donald\, Founder & President\, Brainstorm Strategy Group Inc.\nRiz Ibrahim\, Executive Director\, CERIC\nJill Haigh\, Human Resources Partner\, Manulife Financial\n\nIntroduced by Florence Rousseau\, Director\, Marketing & Communications\, Magnet and moderated by Chantal Brine\, CEO\, EnPoint\, we invite you to the next installment of the Building Future Ready Communities: Virtual Tour series on September 15th\, 1-2 PM EDT / 2-3 PM ADT for community building and an inspirational panel discussion and Q&A! \nIf you are unable to join us live\, sign up anyways and you’ll receive instructions on how to access the recording afterwards. \n

SUMMARY:Building scientific capacity and a new generation of researchers (Host: SK)
DESCRIPTION:September 27\, 1-2 EST / 2-3 ADT \nAdvances in technology and increasing digitalization\, before and exacerbated during the pandemic\, have led to higher demand for advanced skills sets. To build the future of work\, we need to empower a new generation of researchers by nurturing talent and creating opportunities for career development. \nThe critical importance of building scientific capability is apparent\, and the first steps have already been taken with the Government of Canada investing over $550 million to support more than 5\,500 researchers from coast to coast to coast\, and universities across Canada creating opportunity for experiential learning in leading research labs to help young researchers develop the foundational skills and experience needed to pursue meaningful careers in R&D and related fields. \nSupporting researchers in the early stages of their career helps them build an innovative mindset\, confidence and important industry and community connections. Yet\, these young researchers face many challenges\, including establishing research credentials or having them recognized\, limited resources for research\, and high competition for the scarce research positions available. \nJoin leaders as they share their personal and organizational initiatives\, experiences and learnings in building scientific capacity and supporting a new generation of researchers for a better future world of work. \nIntroduced by Florence Rousseau\, Director\, Marketing & Communications\, Magnet\, and moderated by Chantal Brine\, CEO\, EnPoint\, we invite you to the next installment of the Building Future Ready Communities: Virtual Tour series for community building and an inspirational panel discussion and Q&A! \nIf you are unable to join us live\, sign-up anyways and you’ll receive instructions on how to access the recording afterwards.
