LifeProcess Everyday Theory (LPET) (Asia Pacific Career Development Association)
July 30, 2026
Developed by Dr. Anna Miller-Tiedeman, the LifeProcess Everyday Theory (LPET) reconceptualizes career development as the entirety of an individual’s life rather than a narrow set of occupational roles. This session explores a holistic, process-oriented perspective that integrates logical, emotional and spiritual dimensions. Core principles include abandoning judgment, viewing decision-making as a natural flow and living authentically from within. Unlike traditional approaches that focus on fitting people into specific jobs, LPET empowers individuals to become their own career theorists, navigating economic uncertainty using intuition and self-trust to promote lifelong well-being.
