UNSW Business School invites you to a thought-provoking Meet the CEO with Christian Sutherland-Wong, the CEO of Glassdoor – a world leader in job and company insights.
We have witnessed a remarkable transformation in the world of work in the past few years. Individuals have undergone profound introspection regarding their careers and have been seeking new paths that align with their aspirations. This period saw the emergence of "Quiet Quitting" phenomenon and the subsequent "Great Resignation" movement that has reshaped the workforce.
In an interview with Meet the CEO host and UNSW alumna Ellen Derrick (AGSM MBA 2006), Christian (BCom 2003) will share his understanding of these trends and their implications on the global job market, explore how to navigate career transitions and the opportunities in today’s rapidly evolving landscape, as well as share insights from his personal career journey and the valuable lessons learned along the way.
Join us on Monday, 7 August at 6:30pm AEST for this livestreamed event, where you will have the opportunity to participate in the live Q&A and ask Christian a question.
