Whether you’ve landed your dream job in archives or you’re just getting
your career started, we can all benefit from thoughtful and intentional
goal setting, finding ways to grow personally and professionally, and
developing a network of people who can inspire, support, and guide us.
In this personalized, career-development-oriented workshop we will focus on
identifying and setting professional goals, making an actionable plan,
building your networking skills,and developing a mentoring circle to help
you reach the next level in your career.

This will be an interactive, personal, and career-focused workshop. We hope
participants will feel comfortable sharing career aspirations and
participating in group brainstorming/networking sessions. Participants will
leave with a new network of professional peers, an individualized plan that
includes actionable career goals for the short term, and a map of their
developmental network.

Darla and Jessica have facilitated similar sessions for New England
Archivists at past meetings and have experience with developing mentoring
programs for the Harvard Library and the Joint Committee on the Status of
Women at Harvard Medical School.
