Belonging in Global Careers: Research & Reality

✨ A special 10-year milestone conversation by My Swiss Story

Join us for an intimate evening of meaningful conversation on the theme: “Belonging in Global Careers: Bridging Research and Lived Experience.”

In today’s increasingly global and mobile world, many professionals build careers across cultures, countries, and institutions. Yet beyond qualifications and opportunities, the deeper question often remains: where do we truly feel that we belong?

Through honest reflections, lived experiences, and valuable insights, our speakers will share perspectives on:

• navigating global careers and international mobility
• belonging, identity, and leadership in diverse environments
• digital trust, transformation, and human connection
• creating spaces where people feel seen, valued, and empowered

Bringing together voices from academia, research, leadership, and community building, the evening is designed to create meaningful reflection, fresh perspectives, and genuine human connection.
