The old paradigm of matching high school students to job titles is no longer serving us. The realities of our changing world of work demands that we help students look beyond job titles to find inspiring challenges to work on. This new approach to career education is called the Challenge mindset. For the last 3 years, thousands of students have been using the Challenge mindset to explore challenges to solve, the companies working on them, the people who work there, and what they need to learn to be able to do that. Teachers, guidance counsellors and district leaders have been leading this transformation in hundreds of schools. During this presentation, participants will learn about how K-12 leaders are using career education to promote equity, inclusion and achievement. We will explore three case studies as well as discuss student impact. Practical strategies and Challenge mindset activities will be discussed.
JP Michel is on a mission to change the way we prepare people for their careers. He is the founder and head coach at SparkPath and creator of the challenge mindset. JP’s work on careers has been featured on the BBC, CBC and TFO. Since 2009, he has leveraged his experience coaching high-performing leaders to help hundreds of high-school students develop their potential, set meaningful career paths, and accomplish their goals. JP has an MSc in industrial-organizational psychology from the University of Manchester and is the recipient of the 2017 Outstanding Career Professional award from the Career Professionals of Canada.
