THE OPPORTUNITY
Let’s Partner to Prepare The Next Generation
The truth is, there is a huge benefit for your students to take a deep dive into the essence of what they specifically need to be successful.
Despite all the technical skills students gain in school, how are they gaining real-world industry insight? You know, those aspects and elements, dynamics and nuances that are not always taught, but caught- the on the job experiential experiences.
There are nuances I have gleaned along my career journey while working and leading within various organizations, including GlaxoSmithKline, Merck Research Laboratories and Johnson and Johnson, to name a few. Successfully navigating and building upon these diverse industry experiences have propelled me to success in my career. I am excited to share these strategies with your students to help them step out CONFIDENTLY after graduation!
Through speaking and customizable career ready workshops, I provide ACTIONABLE STRATEGIES and TOOLS, including a framework to help students discover their unique talents, leverage their gifts, and confidently step into their "next", prepared to lead.
