Finding Work with Purpose: Why Joy Matters

“Where do you find joy in work?” It’s a question most of us have never been asked, yet the answer is the key to unlocking our greatest potential.

In this inspiring session, Mitch Bliven introduces the Working Genius framework as a powerful tool for self-awareness and career clarity. You will learn how to identify your natural gifts and understand what kind of work gives you energy versus what drains it.

This session is designed to help you navigate your current career transition, turning this challenging pause into a period of potential and preparing you to maximize the joy you find in your next role.

Mitch Bliven is a Collaboration Designer and certified Working Genius Facilitator dedicated to helping people thrive in their careers. After his own experience with burnout, he discovered that aligning work with his natural gifts was the key to finding his passion and purpose in work.
Mitchell's approach, Collaboration Design, combines the trained empathy of a social worker with the unwavering belief in continuous improvement that defines lean thinking. He applies these principles to create more humane and effective "people systems." This equips individuals and teams to understand their unique wiring, reduce workplace friction, and find a renewed sense of meaning in their work.
