Abstract	Predicting the necessary skills and competencies required by the students of today, for them to be ready for the future, has always been high on the priority list for students, educators, policy makers and business leaders. We know that change is the only constant, and in order for graduates to be ready for this uncertainty, it is essential for educational institutions to develop students who are adaptable, resilient, and self-driven. This study investigates the impact of discovering "ikigai," which is a key component of a comprehensive year-1 undergraduate students' development programme on self-leadership. To evaluate this impact, the study adopted a mixed-methods approach and featured 510 students and 37 coaches. The results demonstrated benefit in defining "ikigai" since students reported they had learned key skills in self-leadership, even when delivered as emergency remote learning. This favourable outcome was accompanied by a very high satisfaction rate measure by Net Promoter Score of 73.9%. More longitudinal work will need to be carried out to investigate whether feeling prepared for what is yet to come actually predicts how well young people make the most of their university experience to hone their 21st century skills and achieve their goals in the future.
