How to Discover a Fulfilling career Lisa Rogoff

 About Lisa

Lisa Rogoff is the Founder of Launch Project, an initiative designed to change our relationship with work. Instead of trying to find the elusive work-life balance, Lisa challenges us to strive for work-life integration.

Before becoming a coach, Lisa formed and led teams across a diverse range of industries (human rights, non-profits, advocacy organizations, for-profits, start-ups) and settings (Washington, DC, Rwanda, Burkina Faso, Charlottesville, VA). Most recently, Lisa spent five years working for a research-based assessment, training, and professional development company focused on enhancing the effectiveness of teacher-child interactions.

On this episode of My perfect Failure (How to discover a Fulfilling career) we discuss how our careers can be a part of who we are, relate to our values, and what we want out of this world.  Some of the areas we cover.
