This program provides concentrated attention and skill-building for mid- to high-level professionals or managers.
Look beyond your current situation. Explore and plan for change.
You see trends in your industry, your occupation or with your employer, that tell you change is on the horizon. You want to get in front of it. You would rather not be caught off-guard. Or you may be in a position where you have no other choice but to start looking ahead.
The nature of employment has changed so much, and continues to do so. If you are familiar with what it takes to find a new job these days, you know your application can fall into a black hole. It can take longer to get an interview. The interview process is more drawn-out. You may not hear any word for weeks.
Then there is the trend toward being a free agent of sorts, even though you are playing a strong role on a project, alongside full-time employees, i.e., The Gig Economy.
Aside what you see going on around you, you may want a change – on your own terms. You want to move to a different employer or a different line of work altogether. You may want to start your own business. You may not know what kind of change you want. You just know you need one.
