December member* webinar: What's in your career "go-bag?"
Facing career uncertainty? Be prepared!
Over here at Optionality, we’re still thinking about uncertainty and wondering how we can best position ourselves to weather potential storms. November’s webinar was specifically about financial management…how to protect and preserve your purse.
This month we’re looking at what it takes to be ready for a job change. Simply having an updated resume won’t cut it in today’s job market. For experienced professionals deep into their careers job hunting is a much more nuanced process, where you lean on your skills, your superpowers, and your network to help guide your process.
Whether you’re striking out for greener pastures, feel at risk of being put out to pasture, or just want to ease anxiety, advisor and investor Jenny Coogan will issue you marching orders to feel well-equipped for an uncertain career future.
