International Generalist Day 2026 🌍 Imagine you could meet new friends who understood your squiggly background? Well, now you can! Join Liani & Eben in Cape Town for International Generalist Day — a global celebration happening simultaneously across cities worldwide on September 16th, 2026. 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. Or the TLDR version: ✅ Multi-disciplinary ✅ Multi-passionate ❌ Can choose only one career path Where's it going to be? Sundowners at Bakoven 🌅 Join us for a golden hour hang on the rocks at Bakoven, we'll be perched on the big boulder near NSRI Station 2 (just type "NSRI Station 2 Bakoven" into your maps to find us). Expect a beautiful sunset, chilled vibes, and a few fun twists along the way. What to bring: - A blanket or towel to sit on - Your own glass - A snack that starts with the first letter of your name (yes, really, this is the twist) We'll have a few bottles of wine on hand, but bring your drink of choice if you'd prefer something else. Weather backup: Cape Town weather can be unpredictable. If it rains, we'll pivot to a backup venue in Kenilworth, so keep an eye on updates. To make sure you don't miss any last-minute changes, please join our group chat, we promise not to bombard you with messages. (https://chat.whatsapp.com/HTGRgIkmHvI6O3CYQCNfZN) 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 - Wine and a beautiful sunset (if weather permits) Who should come: Anyone! Seriously🥺 Bring your friends too (you can send them this event so they can also RSVP). This meetup is run by Liani & Eben and organised by Generalist World - the community where generalists belong. You'll find everything you need to grow in your career - support, opportunity, lots of learning and great new connections.
