What does your organization value? 

Does it value you and your goals and success? What about your career success even beyond your current organization? Let’s face it, growth is personal and it is seldom a straight line. It is definitely not a checklist of tasks. So what is career growth to you and your team members?

Yuri Victor of The Atlantic has spent a lot of time thinking about the career success of his teams and what success looks like to each of them individually. He has created a framework for growth and a methodology system to focus on career growth for his teams. 

Yuri will be presenting at SND’s Designing Success 1-day workshop on Oct 22, 2022 in Washington, DC. 

His session:

Designing A Career

At the best companies every year you’re told to set goals. For the most part they’re not really goals, they’re a list of tasks to check off, and they’re not really about personal growth, but to help the company grow, which can leave us feeling stagnant and wondering: am I moving in the right direction? This talk will help you map out different paths for long-term growth and provide steps you can actively take to design the career you desire.

Yuri Victor lives in New York and is a senior editor at The Atlantic. He’s helped hundreds of companies rethink their digital experiences, created software used by thousands of organizations, and worked with the largest media and tech companies on design and emerging technology. He co-founded Vox.com, drawing the original concepts on a napkin, before leaving to help start a profitable research and development department at The New York Times. For the past 12 years, he’s administered SND’s servers, helped plan multiple conferences, roamed the world teaching quick courses for the organization, and judged multiple competitions. He is passionate about building happy teams and cultures. His dog is named Rosie and she is adorable.

This event has a maximum attendance of 125. Registration closes Oct. 17, 2022.
