What if career planning isn’t about having all the answers? 🤔

What if career planning isn’t about having all the answers? 🤔 At Wa Ying College, we were delighted to welcome Serena Tang, Career Development and Training Director (Master’s Programmes) at HKU Business School, for a practical session on career planning and CV building. Serena encouraged students to see uncertainty differently: not as something to fear, but as something they can respond to with action and reflection. Using Ikigai as a career-planning compass, students explored four questions 🧭:
  • What they enjoy
  • What they are good at
  • What the world values
  • Where real opportunities may lie
They were then challenged to connect the dots:
  • What problem do you care about?
  • What skill do you already have?
  • How could that skill help you understand or solve that problem?
The message was simple but powerful: clarity does not mean knowing exactly where you will end up. It means knowing what you are exploring — and why. Thank you, Serena for joining us to help young people build the confidence and tools to navigate an uncertain future!
