Crafting an age-proof career with longevity and purpose
(in an era of technological upheaval and perceived disposable talent)

Mallory has made career crafting a conscious part of her work journey. From early experiments in a law firm to stints in psychology and eventually finding her emotional home in experience design for the workplace, her professional longevity lies in understanding her core principles and using them to reset, reskill and craft her career through several transitions. With even more change on the horizon – from evolving technology to aging to family – the need to intentionally shape her own experience, stay relevant and thrive will become even more important.

In this talk, Mallory will:

  • Share insights about her own experience in maturing her career focus in an always changing industry
  • Dig into the shifting demographic landscape in Canada and the career opportunities it creates
  • Share ideas for how we all can benefit from an aging workforce
