About Module 6:
Your Value Statement — Finding Your Ikigai
Your value statement is more than a summary of your skills — it's the intersection of what you're good at, what you love, what the world needs, and what you can be paid for. This session uses the Japanese concept of Ikigai to help you map that intersection clearly, honestly, and with evidence behind it.
You'll leave with a four-part value statement you can adapt into a cover letter opening, a LinkedIn summary, or a 30-second interview introduction — plus the evidence to back every claim.
This session builds directly on your Strengths Profile, Capacity Plan, and Career Targets from Modules 2–4, and feeds into your Application Kit in Module 7.

Program Details
Participants gain access to a 09 module self-paced learning series, alongside monthly Job Seeker Meetings, on the last Friday of every month. that provide space for reflection & questions, regardless of which module someone is currently engaging with.
