Future-Proof Your Career - Are you invisible in the job market? (Pre-event Survey)

This is a confidential survey in advance of the CFA's "Future Proof Your Career" workshop on Tuesday, Jul 28, 2026. The survey is to help determine how attendees of the workshop feel about AI, careers, and the future. The results will be presented at the workshop. The survey is administered by Charles Caldwell, Founder of CCE International Admin Group (leadership advisory) and the HorizonX Network, who will be speaking at the CFA event. (The survey takes about five minutes to complete.) Thank you in advance for your participation! 🙏🏼
