NextGen Month Workshop 8: What Wine Ageing Processes Can Teach Us About Career Progression

What Wine Ageing Processes Can Teach Us About Career Progression In Insurance & Financial Services

About the session

Not all wines mature well and there are various reasons for this, the same is true of some careers.

However, with a proper strategy taking into account current and future market trends as well as understanding the need to future-proof your skills and qualifications, you can ensure that you progress your career with the right trajectory and thrive in the 4th industrial revolution.

Through tasting 5 different wines and learning about how winemakers age wines to ensure they are future-proof for their intended markets, we will explore what the wine ageing processes can teach us about career progression in insurance and financial services.
