Career Conversation – What do you think is the ‘world of work’?

We all have different ideas about the world of work and what it is, and this is totally normal.

Taking a minute to talk about how you see the world of work can help young people understand that we all see things differently.

Use this conversation starter as a PDF or print it out. The best time to chat is when you’re all together and not in a rush, so at dinner time for example, or during a longer car ride. If finding a time when you’re all together is tricky, you can also use a group message to get people talking.
