Community Lab NxG - NxG Ikigai Worshop: Unlock Your Potential, Ignite Your Future
Community Lab
Have you reached your full potential, both personally and professionally ? Not sure? This Ikigai Worshop is made for you!
Finding your “raison d'être”, or "Ikigai" in Japanese, allows you to become aware of your inner resources, talents and skills, unleash your potential, feel useful and bring more joy to your everyday life. According to this ancient Japanese philosophy, what we do best lies at the intersection of four circles: what we love, what we are good at, what the world needs and what we can be paid to do.
The Ikigaï Workshop is a joyful, pragmatic and well-equipped approach, the first step on an empowerment journey.
FOR WHOM IS THIS?
You are aged between 18-40 yo and wish to further reflect on your role and legacy within your family business. Key questions: how do I find my voice in the family? Should I join the family business, when? How can I become an effective leader.
