Mid-Career Transitions – Designing a Path Forward

How do I leverage all my years of experience? What happens when the market has changed? Where do I begin and how do I know this is the right path for me?

When making a mid-career transition, it’s not often an easy decision and it doesn’t usually happen overnight. In times of COVID, the decision to pivot careers may be even more challenging. Led by Columbia Business School’s Career Management Center, this webinar will focus on how to design a plan and position yourself for a successful career transition.
