This Life Design workshop will help you create the life you want. It will provide valuable insights and a clear action plan for everyone who is not yet entirely sure about their next steps in career and life.

During the workshop you will literally design your life and career using the same design process and principles as are used by designers to develop products and services. By designing your life, you get clarity on direction, priorities, purpose, values, potential life and career scenarios, as well as deciding on very concrete next steps to make it all happen.

The process is highly interactive and engaging, and you will use creative thinking and intuition as well as rational decision-making tools and techniques. You don’t need to have any design experience or creative skills to get the most out of this workshop.

• ‘Very inspiring! Gives me so much more clarity, energy and enthusiasm about my future!’
The total average student score for the March workshop was 4.8 out of 5.
