This session will start to explore how we, as advisers, can support young people with the more holistic skills required to become self-employed including overcoming daily challenges, developing their aspirational idea and working around their disability or health condition.
Reflecting on what self-employment actually means to each individual young person is key to this exploration, along with managing their personal assumptions and expectations. By the end of this session, you will have the tools you need to start the conversation in the ‘right way’ so that your mentee can make a balanced and informed decision about their future.
