This online workshop is part of our new, exciting range of digital masterclasses that we are offering. In this live online workshop, you will have the opportunity to engage in real time with our brilliant course tutors, as well as other participants – with additional pre and post-course support from our learning team. To celebrate the launch, we are offering a very limited supply of introductory early bird tickets for each event, discounted up to 25% – once they’re gone, they’re gone!

Are you happy in your work? Are you working more than you usually would, or is the work-life balance becoming increasingly difficult to manage? Are you furloughed or at risk of redundancy, and want to ensure you carve out the career you want without sacrificing your wellbeing?

In this empowering and inspirational online masterclass, lecturer, happiness consultant and founder of Love It or Leave It Samantha Clarke will once and for all help you to nail down what your work happiness should look like and how to make it happen.

As well as addressing the barriers you are currently facing to true work happiness, you will receive invaluable clarity on the steps you can take to turn things around, whether you are juggling working from home with childcare, are looking to pivot into a new career, or want to reinvigorate your attitudes to your current position. Pulling on her years of experience as a changemaker, Samantha will help you to draw your own clear roadmap of simple, doable steps, as well as tips for boosting your resilience and protecting your wellbeing.

Filled with practical tools, exercises and insights, and based on her recent book, Love It or Leave It - How to Be Happy at Work, Samantha will help you decide whether you want to:

  • “Love it” - find ways to fall in love with your current role and cultivate work happiness within your existing company

or

  • “Leave it” - know how to parcel up your transferable skills and move onto the next opportunity or build a brand new portfolio career

Whether you need to bounce back from a career setback, reassess how much joy your current job brings you, or fall back in love with your role, this is an unmissable opportunity for a much-needed injection of inspiration and hope, for anyone feeling anxious about their direction during the current climate.

Course content

  • How did you end up here and what’s the next step? You’ll create your LOVE IT or LEAVE IT roadmap depending on whether you are:

  1. At a career crossroads – ready to fall in love with your current role, or want to parcel up your skills and find a new beginning

  2. Need more joy on the job – navigating and rebalancing the work-life harmony

  3. Facing a career setback – you’ve been furloughed or made redundant and need to boost your wellbeing and confidence to embrace a new plan of action

  • Building your career transition toolkit - identify your passions, skills, strengths and dreams to make the right switch
