Description
How can I find purpose in my career? That's the question my students and recent graduates ask me all the time. They want a job that provides them with more than just money. They want a sense of purpose, a job that is doing something to help people, the environment, or society in general. Ann Reinking Whitener has found that sense of purpose in her career. For the last nine years, she has worked for the United Nations Children’s Fund, better known as UNICEF. She graduated from the College of Charleston in 2008 and has since had a fascinating career, working for several purpose-driven organizations. Hear her thoughts on how she found that purpose and how you can too.
