Career Sleepwalking: Implications for the Business of Social Work Practice 1.5 CE Tracey Lynn Neal, LMSW
You might be career sleepwalking if the last time you thought about your professional self was when you were studying for your licensure exam or were in the process of a job search. Ignoring the signs of career sleepwalking can have detrimental consequences for your social work practice, our organizations, and our communities. Considering NASW’s recent amendments within the Code of Ethics concerning self-care, this workshop invites participants to discover the transformation possible through engaging resources, discussions, and activities purposely designed to support professional self-care. Professional self-care is the care or attention given to your professional self including knowledge, skills, work product, and career pathway. Don’t miss this opportunity to learn how to recognize career sleepwalking characteristics and develop a self-care routine that reaches beyond the well documented practices that most often encompass only the physical, psychological, and/or spiritual self.
