Technical Seminar: Managing your career

Organized by Management Section (MS) of IET Hong Kong

About

The seminar titled “Managing Your Career” is designed specifically for students and early-career professionals who aspire to excel in their careers and potentially move into managerial roles. Recognizing the challenges and uncertainties that come with starting and advancing a career, this seminar aims to provide practical guidance, inspiration, and actionable strategies to help participants navigate their professional journeys effectively. To offer diverse perspectives, we have invited three experienced speakers from different industries—real estate, finance, and technology—each representing various seniority levels. These speakers will share their personal career stories, highlight key lessons learned, and provide valuable tips on how to set and achieve career goals in competitive and evolving fields.

The seminar will begin with a panel discussion where the speakers will talk about their career paths, the obstacles they faced, and the skills and mindsets that contributed to their success. This session will help participants understand different career trajectories and the importance of adaptability, continuous learning, and strategic planning. Following the panel, participants will be divided into smaller groups to engage in more intimate and interactive sessions with each speaker. This format encourages open dialogue, allowing attendees to ask specific questions, discuss challenges relevant to their own situations, and receive personalized advice. The smaller group setting fosters a collaborative environment where participants can also learn from their peers’ experiences and perspectives.

In addition to hearing from industry professionals, the seminar will emphasize practical career management techniques, including how to build a strong professional network, develop leadership capabilities, and stay relevant in rapidly changing industries. Participants will be encouraged to reflect on their own career aspirations and create a personalized roadmap that outlines clear short-term and long-term goals. This approach ensures that the seminar is not only inspirational but also equips attendees with tangible tools to take immediate steps toward their career advancement.

 “Managing Your Career” aims to empower young professionals with the knowledge, confidence, and connections needed to proactively manage their careers and position themselves for future leadership opportunities. The combination of expert insights, interactive discussions, and practical exercises will provide a comprehensive learning experience that supports participants in making informed decisions and taking deliberate actions to achieve their professional ambitions.
