Entering the workforce often feels equal parts exciting and overwhelming. There may be uncertainty about the future and curiosity about the skills needed to succeed. At Wavemakers’ recent Career Pathways & Networking event hosted with Deloitte in Wavemakers’ virtual campus on May 24th, when asked what helped to prepare for the career path ultimately taken, the panelists all stated that keeping an open mind and being receptive to different opportunities was key to shaping their progress.

Unlock a world of inspiration and possibilities with our inaugural Wavemakers Magazine, launched in celebration of World Day for Cultural Diversity on May 21. The role of diversity in the workplace is more important than ever, and we’ve brought together some of North America’s leading voices to bring us powerful insights as we strive toward a more inclusive future and empower today’s students to be successful in their careers.

Curiosity. Connection. Collaboration. Innovative Technology. Wavemakers believes that these four components make up the recipe for building strong relationships and developing the skills necessary to succeed in the future of work.
