ABSTRACT

The process of forming and implementing personal and collective aspirations, deciding and planning ahead, essentially determine the quality of experience in every area of life – practical, academic, personal, professional and organizational. The habit of making connections between ‘Self’ and ‘Opportunity’ (the S and O of SOAR) often naturally extends to forming, clarifying and testing Aspirations (the A of SOAR), so that students can make decisions and plans along their lifecareer pathways (see Figure 10.1).
