The Purposeful Careers Initiative (PCI) seeks to equip highly accomplished professionals with the tools and support to reflect on their life journeys, examine pathways for greater purpose, and build a network of support for meaningful career exploration.

Global trends show individuals are pursuing longer careers and deferring retirement. This has led to senior leaders seeking career support and new resources to help them navigate their journeys and find new meaning in their personal and professional lives.

PCI offers leaders:

  • Monthly learning sessions with accomplished and purpose-driven peers, supported by an expert facilitator
  • Two one-on-one coaching sessions
  • Assigned readings and reflection activities to help build upon your learning sessions and coaching
