The Career Development SIG presents: "From Corporate Ladder to Corporate Lattice™  - how to customize your career."

We will discuss why the end of “normal“career paths is upon us.  No longer a straight path up the corporate ladder, careers are most commonly an undulating journey of climbs and lateral moves.  The corporate ladder is giving way to the corporate lattice.  Corporate lattice is the central idea behind Mass Career Customization™ (MCC).  MCC is Deloitte’s customized model for building careers and developing talent.  We will delve into the research and thought leadership associated with the MCC framework including how every employee, in conjunction with their manager, can tailor his or her respective career path over time.
