📍Canberra - International Generalist Day Meetup
International Generalist Day 2025 🌍
Imagine you could meet new friends who understood your squiggly background? Well, now you can!
Join Joanna Le in Canberra for International Generalist Day - a global celebration happening simultaneously across cities worldwide on September 2nd, 2025.
This year we have events across 30+ countries and 80+ locations!
Joanna is hosting a beautiful walk and talk around Lake Burley Griffin, complete with a coffee pit stop halfway through! It's the perfect way to connect with fellow generalists while enjoying Canberra's stunning lakeside scenery. Furry friends and kids are welcome to join the adventure.
What is a generalist? Professionals who apply their skills across multiple domains, connect disparate ideas, or serve as "translators" between different teams and disciplines. If you've ever felt your career doesn't fit in a single box, this celebration is for you.
What to expect:
Connect with fellow generalists in your city
Celebrate the power of diverse skillsets and squiggly careers
Be part of a global movement happening the same day worldwide
More details:
Walk and talk around beautiful Lake Burley Griffin
Bridge to bridge 5km loop with scenic lake views
Coffee pit stop halfway for more relaxed conversations
Furry friends and kids welcome!
