We spend our careers helping students figure out where they're going. But who helps us figure out where we're going?
Reina Shishikura has done something very few career services professionals have done — she's actually lived the career she helps others build. Starting in Canada, moving to Germany to lead the MBA Career Center at WHU, launching her own independent coaching practice, and now leading career development at Asia School of Business in Kuala Lumpur, Reina has navigated career transitions, international moves, entrepreneurship, and the very real question of what it means to build a meaningful career in this profession — across three continents.
In this session, Albert and Reina will sit down for an honest, personal, and inspiring conversation about what it actually takes to grow a global career in career services — the highs, the harder moments, and everything in between.
We'll explore:
✅ What it's like to move your career internationally — and what nobody tells you before you do it
✅ The experience of going independent and why she chose to return to an institution
✅ What working across Canada, Europe, and Asia has taught her about students, employers, and herself
✅ Why being an international student herself shaped how she supports students today
✅ What career services professionals need to hear if they're dreaming of a more global, more portfolio career
A warm, honest, and energizing session for anyone in career services who has ever wondered — what would it look like if I built my career differently?
