Program Description: "Each of us, no matter what we do, has a calling," says Richard Leider, respected author, career coach and founding partner of The Inventure Group (a nationally recognized coaching and learning firm). Leider points out that a calling is more than just finding a job; it involves talents, passions, environment and values. What has distinguished Leider throughout his three decades as a career coach and counselor is the philosophy he brings to making difficult decisions about work and life. "People want to connect deeply with their creative spirit, to know and express their gifts and talents and to know that their lives matter." Leider has a fullproof formula that works for making decisions on purpose. He brings a fresh way of thinking about what matters most in your life and career giving you tools to discover how to live from the inside out to follow your own calling, whether you are eight or eighty years old. 1 hour
