People personalise all aspects of their lives - their cars, drinks, clothes, and holidays. Yet we are rarely invited to personalise our work. This is despite clear evidence showing the benefits of personalising work on performance, inclusion, wellbeing, engagement, and growth.
Job Crafting is about making small changes to how we act, interact, and think about our work. ‘Career Crafting’ takes this further and encourages us to craft our own career journeys, to align with our strengths, passions, and interests. This interactive workshop brought discussion on: the why, what, and how of job crafting, examples of what job and career crafting looks like in practice and explored practical ideas, tools, and frameworks that attendees could take back to their teams.
