Th The Real Ques uestion

• Not how do you get to Jacksonville, but rather…
• What is your Jacksonville?

Th The New Par arad adig igm

• Don’t ask, “what college are you going to?”
• Instead ask, “what do you want to be?”

2/14/19 21

Th The New Par arad adig igm

• Jacksonville (CAREER) is the

destination-the route can be different for all and all routes can lead to their Jacksonville!

• Steak and Lobster!

Wanted to end with a little video we have done to help change the paradigm…feel free to use it often J
